Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFNon Formal education:
- Education that is institutionalized, intentional, and planned by an education provider.
- The defining characteristic of non-formal education is that it is an addition, alternative, and/or a complement to formal education within the process of the lifelong learning of individuals.
- It is often provided to guarantee the right of access to education for all.
- It caters to people of all ages, but does not necessarily apply a continuous pathway-structure; it may be short in duration and/or low intensity, and it is typically provided in the form of short courses, workshops, or seminars.
- Non-formal education mostly leads to qualifications that are not recognized as formal qualifications by the relevant national educational authorities or to no qualifications at all.
- Education takes place outside the formal system on either a regular or an intermittent basis.
- Non-formal education can cover programs contributing to adult and youth literacy and education for out-of-school children, as well as programs on life skills, work skills, and social or cultural development.
Hence, there is no specific goal that is not a feature of non-formal education.
