Education or teaching in the broadest sense is any act or experience that has a formative effect on the mind, character or physical ability of an individual. In its technical sense education is the process by which society deliberately transmits its accumulated knowledge, skills and values from one generation to another.

Etymologically the word education contains educare (latin) "bring up" which is related to educere "bring out", "bring forth what is within", "bring out potential" and ducere "to lead".

Teachers in educational institutions direct the education of students and might draw on many subjects, including reading, writing, mathematics, science and history. This process is sometimes called schooling when referring to the education of teaching only a certain subject, usually as professors at institutions of higher learning. There is also education in fields for those who want specific vocational skills, such as those required to be a pilot. In addition there is an array of education possible at the informal level, such as in museums and libraries, with the Internet and in life experience. Many non-traditional education options are now available and continue to evolve.

The right to education has been established as a basic human right: since 1952, Article 2 of the first Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights obliges all signatory parties to guarantee the right to education. At world level, the United Nations' International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights of 1966 guarantees this right under its Article 13.

What education is needed to be a radiology nurse?
Q. What does the job entail, salary, description? I am trying to find a nurse specialty and someone meantioned it but I'm not positive what exactly the job calls for especially education wise.
Asked by ~Mo~lovin<3 - Tue Nov 13 21:26:12 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The other answerers are incorrect. It's a specialty of nursing. You don't go through radiology school. "The larger medical centers may employ a radiological nurse who provides for the physical, mental, and emotional needs of the patient who is undergoing tests or treatment in a radiology department. The radiological nurse usually develops and manages a care plan to help patients understand procedures and, later, recuperate from the procedures. This may also include working with a patient's family. The nurse can perform examinations or carry out preventive health measures within the prescribed guidelines and instructions of the radiologist. In addition, the nurse can record physician findings and discuss cases with either the radiologist… [cont.]

What education do I need to become an Apartment Manager?
Q. My Father is looking into buying about 15-20 apartments. He would like for me to get an education in order to become a large part of running the complex. It's an investing opportunity, and my father honestly doesn't know anything about it himself, so he's basically counting on me to do it all. I am very interested though.

A. In the case of the apartment building I used to live in, a third grade education was sufficient for the manager.

What education would I need to work in the Psychological Department of a Hospital?
Q. I'm interested in going into this department. What high school and college education would I need in order to get a good well paying job in that department?
Asked by Richard S - Wed Sep 10 20:28:10 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. To get a job that pays well in the psychology department of a hospital, you would likely need an M.D. (work as a psychiatrist). You could work with patients as a master's level therapist, but they do not make much money at the job ( don't count on more than 35k-40k, and even that could be pushing it). With a bachelor's degree in psychology, you could work in the department as a psych tech, but your pay would scarcely rival that of working at your local McDonald's (sad, but true). ~M~
