Non-formal Education

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 it will also exclude itself from exterior environments. 

Non-formal education will typically be short in duration and tend to be 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 like, playing a game, gardening ordoing chores around the house.
