Summary/Abstract: The COVID-19 virus pandemic, better known as the Corona virus, has forced people of all ages to turn more to the digital world. Also, a large number of people are increasingly enrolling in various courses and in that way they are improving their skills, learning and later looking for employment with those diplomas. In addition to formal education, more and more employers are looking for evidence of completed additional education or training at job interviews and value it with additional points. Also, young people are focusing less and less attention and concentration on formal education. The Internet, new technologies, social networks, all this has led to the availability and rapid flow of information. Non-formal education aims to provide education in certain areas, which is more adapted to the times in which we live, in a relaxed way, with a smaller group of people where everyone is an equal participant. Young people are increasingly turning to non-formal education, which, in addition to learning through the use of new technologies, also gives them the opportunity to travel, socialize, meet and discover new people and cultures. Non-formal education is also becoming more accepted in schools, which encourage young people to participate in various seminars and trainings. In this paper we will try to show the characteristics of new generations of young people and the importance of non-formal education today, through examples of good practice, which showed that young people after completing various seminars and courses, find employment easier and be more recognizable in the labor market.
