Life Long Learning
The Four Pillars of Learning[2]
A holistic conceptual framework of learning
Argument in favor:
- that formal education tends to emphasize the acquisition of knowledge to the detriment of other types of learning essential to sustaining human development.
- The need to think of learning over the life course, and to address how everyone can develop relevant skills, knowledge and attitudes for work, citizenship and personal fulfillment.[
The four pillars of learning are:
- Learning to know
- Learning to do
- Learning to be
- Learning to live together
*
Life-Long Learning (LLL)
Lifelong learning occurs in every profession throughout the world
Promotes learning beyond traditional schooling and throughout adult life
*
*
*
Life-long Learning (LLL)
- LLL comprises all phases of learning, from pre-school to post-retirement, and covers the whole spectrum of formal, non-formal and informal learning.
- It means that learning as a process occurs at all times in all places
- It should be a process of continuous learning that is directed towards not only providing the individual needs, also that of the relevant community

The distinction between formal and non-formal learning:
Formal learning:
- occurs within institutions established primarily to deliver education and training
- often leading to recognized outcomes and qualifications
Non-formal learning:
- The setting is outside dedicated learning institutions
- Most often in places where learning is not the primary business
