DATA CONCEPTS and CLASSIFICATIONS



Classification used

Ideally, the indicator should be disaggregated by types of programme such as TVET, tertiary education, adult education and other relevant types and cover both formal and non-formal programmes.

Formal education and training is defined as education provided by the system of schools, colleges, universities and other formal educational institutions that normally constitutes a continuous ‘ladder’ of full-time education for children and young people, generally beginning at the age of 5 to 7 and continuing to up to 20 or 25 years old. In some countries, the upper parts of this ‘ladder’ are organized programmes of joint part-time employment and part-time participation in the regular school and university system.

Non-formal education and training is defined as any organized and sustained learning activities that do not correspond exactly to the above definition of formal education. Non-formal education may therefore take place both within and outside educational institutions and cater to people of all ages. Depending on national contexts, it may cover educational programmes to impart adult literacy, life-skills, work-skills, and general culture.

Disaggregation

is by age and sex.

Key statistical concepts

The number of participants by single year of age in formal and non-formal education and training; population estimates by single year of age.

 

PRAGi = EAGi

PAGi

Where:

PRAGi = participation rate of the population in age group i in formal and non-formal education and training;

EAGi = enrolment of the population in age group i in formal and non-formal education and training;

PAGi = population in age group i;

i = 15-24, 15 and above, 25-64 etc.

OTHER ASPECTS



Recommended uses

This indicator is used to ensure equal access for all women and men to affordable and quality technical, vocational and tertiary education, including university

Limitations

Formal and non-formal education and training can be offered in a variety of settings including schools and universities, workplace environments and others and can have a variety of durations. Administrative data often capture only provision in formal settings such as schools and universities. Participation rates do not capture the intensity or quality of the provision nor the outcomes of the education and training on offer.
