Non-formal education of adults as a factor of sociocultural modernization of Ukrainian society: experience of Finland

Abstract

This article examines the concept of “non-formal adult education” in the context of modernization of Ukrainian society, revealing its essence as a factor of socio-cultural and socio-economic transformations. Special attention is given to the fact that over the last few decades the traditional system of education is no longer able to satisfy and meet the socio-economic needs of the Ukrainian society. The importance for qualitatively new approaches to the organization of additional education services, professional and personal development of each adult personality is outlined. Finnish non-formal adult education is associated with a person-oriented learning process, in which adult learners are active consumers of knowledge and skills reproduced not at the demand of the educational system but for personal growth and improvement. On the example of Finnish experience, the main strategies of adult non-formal education for the needs of Ukrainian society are formulated. The fact that human capital is considered to be an important factor in social, economic and political transformations is underlined.
