Script
- A learning arrangement is a particular way in which learning resources, educational formats, educational methods, elicitation and other techniques are put together to facilitate one's learning. The arrangements may include learning games, competitions, role plays, simulations, field trips, and other settings arranged to stimulate one's observations and direct experiences.
- Computer-aided education utilizes learning management system based on some software. This format can complement any other learning arrangement.
- Internships are periods of professional experience offered by an organization for a limited period to students enrolled into programs related to that profession. Internship can be considered as a complement to formal training; for some students, especially those in the medical field, internship is a requirement for an educational credential.
- A gap year is a one-year hiatus from academic studies to allow for nonacademic, usually experiential learning activities.
- In apprenticeship, someone called an apprentice learns on the job and, often, at some educational institution.
- Field immersions are the acts of immersing or the state of being immersed in the subject of study, as well as instruction based on extensive exposure to surroundings or conditions that are native or pertinent to the object of study. This arrangement is often used to study foreign languages, for instance.
- Residency training is one's training in a broad set of skills and abilities related to a particular profession in real-world environments under the direct or indirect supervision of a more competent other. In many jurisdictions, successful completion of such training is a requirement to obtain an unrestricted license to practice the profession. In medical education, this type of training is known as postgraduate training or, simply, residency.
