Formal education: the hierarchically structured, chronologically graded “education system”, running from primary school through the university and including, in addition to general academic studies, a variety of specialized programs and institutions for full-time technical and professional training.

It’s clear that people are included in all these processes of education during life. Starting from informal education in the family, everybody gets a formal education then and received new knowledge via informal and non-formal educations – different seminars, conferences, writing articles, self-education, etc. In many cases such education demands teacher’s presence especially for formal and non-formal educations.

Lindroos (2015) writes that “Lifelong learning is often defined as a set of activities provided outside the mainstream education. However, the situation is changing and in the future university level lifelong learning should rather be seen as an integrated part of university education.

Such an amount of time and energy is put into their educations, despite the fact that their lives would vary from that point on depending on their jobs.
