What 85.5 includes

• This group includes education (including non-formal) which is neither part of initial education in the regular school system, nor equivalent in programme content and qualifications to those programmes. It includes training for any professional, hobby or self-development purposes for both children and adults, including non-formal continuing vocational education and training. Non-formal education is defined by ISCED-P 2011 as institutionalised, intentional and planned by an education provider, as an addition, alternative and/or complement to formal education within the process of an individual's lifelong learning. It targets people of all ages but does not necessarily apply a continuous pathway/structure; it may be short in duration and/or low-intensity, and it is typically provided in the form of short courses, workshops or seminars.
• This group includes the provision of athletic instruction to groups or individuals, foreign language instruction, instruction in the arts, drama or music, as well as other instruction or specialised training provided by camps and schools, not comparable to the education in groups 85.1 to 85.4.
• This group also includes education activities run by self-employed / own account / individual / independent lecturers (tutors, academics, instructors).

What 85.5 excludes

• Formal educational activities as outlined in groups 85.1 to 85.4, in other words, pre-primary education, primary education, secondary education, post-secondary non-tertiary education or tertiary education.
