Abstract

With new technologies expanding, existing knowledge is rapidly becoming obsolete and needs continuous improvement to help individuals and society adapt more easily and quickly to the demands that technological advancements carries. Among the many developmental possibilities of modern humanity and modern learning in the context of the „educational explosion“ it is given a special importance. The orientation of modern education as well as self-education towards the ideal of the learned man carries, in its essence, a deeper meaning and a more contemporary function of ever-evolving lifelong learning. Self-education has an equally important function in general vocational education and training. The realization and the sphere of professional self-education has a positive feedback effect on the sphere of general education as the higher level of professional extends the conditions for new dimensions of general education. Professional self-education, as one of the primary and increasingly important modalities of professional development, expresses the essence of its function with an unbreakable correlative connection with the whole educational process. In this connection, there is a two-directional influence through the influence of other modalities of education on vocational education and its impact on them.
