Formal education is what we Americans would call ‘traditional education’, where we would attend K through 12th
grade and then onto college. That type of education is long-term and
institution-based. Formal education will be very structured and
academic and will exclude itself from exterior environments.
Non-formal education will typically be short in duration and
tends to be more practical. This type of education will be
non-credential-based, flexible, and environment-based. Examples of
non-formal education are job training, community demonstrations, and CPR
training.
Informal education can be anything we learn in everyday life i.e., playing a game, gardening, or doing chores around the house.
