Abstract
In this study, the implications of formalising previously non-formal NGO training were investigated. The literature suggested that there might be sociological, pedagogical and epistemological issues that would impact on the process. The sociological concerns centred on how formalisation might impact on the social purpose of education and training. The epistemological issues involved concerns about which knowledge gets privileged under formalisation and the question of the transferability of different types of knowledge. The pedagogical concerns focused on what impact formalisation might have on curriculum and methodology.
