Summary/Abstract: Education for the future responds to a current urge of rethinking education at the level of education systems in Europe and worldwide, taking into consideration the fact that they no longer meet the expectations of a rapidly evolving generation that transcends by intelligence and pragmatism what school offers them today. The education for the future must be dynamic, able to react quickly to the swift pace of change in everyday life. Thus, it is imperative to move from standardization to adaptation. The education for the future must be consistent with the individuality of each child. This requires a selective education meant to re-evaluate all the values. In this sense, in the school of the future the teacher cannot be replaced even by the most powerful computer in the world, because the teacher is the only one who can discover and stimulate the creative potential of children and young people respectively. The professions of the future must not be primarily dependent on advanced (top) technology development, but on exploring the creativity of each child in one area or another. Education through and for humans can be a new type of education that should take into account all aspects of the human being.
