  2. CONTEXT AND REALITY IN EUROPE • Non formal education in Europe is a model COMPLEXE ( interaction of different experience and actors..) PLURIEL (multi-cultural directions) NON HOMOGENE (on geographical, historial plan)

  4. Formal learning • is purposive learning that takes place in a distinct and institutionalised environment specifically designed for teaching/training and learning, which is staffed by learning facilitators who are specifically qualified for the sector, level and subject concerned and which usually serves a specified category of learners (defined by age, level and specialism). • learning aims are almost always externally set, learning progress is usually monitored and assessed, and learning outcomes are usually recognised by certificates or diplomas. Much formal learning provision is compulsory (school education).

  5. Non-formal learning • is purposive but voluntary learning that takes place in a diverse range of environments and situations for which teaching/training and learning is not necessarily their sole or main activity. These environments and situations may be intermittent or transitory, and the activities or courses that take place may be staffed by professional learning facilitators (such as youth trainers) or by volunteers (such as youth leaders). • the activities and courses are planned, but are seldom structured by conventional rhythms or curriculum subjects. They usually address specific target groups, but rarely document or assess learning outcomes or achievements in conventionally visible ways.

  6. Informal learning • from the learner’s standpoint at least, this is non-purposive learning which takes place in everyday life contexts in the family, at work, during leisure and in the community. It does have outcomes, but these are seldom recorded, virtually never certified and are typically neither immediately visible for the learner nor do they count in themselves for education, training or employment purposes. APEL systems are one way in which the outcomes of such learning can be made more visible and hence open to greater recognition.

Non formal education … • Is a right, equality of all people in front of this right must be reconized and garantie for the construction of a free choix and free expression • The non formal education, according our educational conception has to allow the access to autonomy and socialization of people, to the participation of social life, to the process of personal emancipation, to the struggle against exclusions. It mustn’t worsen inequalities concerning leisures and culture

  9. Non Formal education … • Non formal education must be acknowledged as an element constituting the education of all the people. • It must be supported by institutions and public powers among society. It mustn’t be abandoned to the logic of the market • The non formal education has values and educational specificities of its own, it brings social and societal transformations • Non formal education concerns all publics, not only specific populations or populations in difficult conditions. It’s not an accessory supplement.

  10. And more.. • Youthwork (vocational and professional work) in the non formal education must be fully acknowledged. • The professional value and dignity of youthworkers and youthleaders must be acknowledged. It must be carried out by actors under different status who must be valorised in their skills as educational and social actors, project initiators, technicians, educationalists in activity or subject fields • The qualification of youthleaders /youthworkers whatever their status is a crucial element for the educational quality of actions towards the public
