What 855 includes

• This group includes educational activities (including non-formal education) that are not part of the initial education program within the regular school system and are not equivalent in content or qualifications to such programs. This group includes training for various purposes (professional needs, hobbies, or personal development) for children and adults, including non-formal continuing vocational education and training. ISCED-P 2011 defines non-formal education as education that is institutionalized, intentional, and designed by educational providers to supplement, alternative, and/or complement formal education in an individual's lifelong learning process. This education is intended for all age groups, but does not always follow a continuous learning path. It can be short-term and/or low-intensity, and is generally conducted in the form of short courses, workshops, or seminars. This group also includes educational activities carried out by educators (e.g., lecturers, tutors, academics, instructors) who work independently. This group includes educational services such as group or individual sports training, foreign language training, art, drama, or music training, and other forms of specialized training or education provided by camps or schools that are not equivalent to education in groups 851–854. The instruction provided here includes sports, games, and teacher instruction, including yoga instruction. This group includes academic tutoring services, tutoring institutions, remedial learning centers, language instruction, speed reading, and religious instruction.
