2. The Types of Educational Organizations
a. Formal Organization
According to Undang-Undang Nomor 20 tahun 2003, formal education is a  kind  of  structured  and  gradual  education  which  consists  of  primary  education,
high  education  and  college.  The  types  of  education  include  common  education, vocational,  academic,  profession,  religion  and  specific  education.  The  direction,
stages, and types of education can be realized into educational unit which are hold by the government, region government and the society.
According  to  International  Labor  Organization  2008,  Formal Organization  refers  to Teaching-learning  situations  are  formal  when  provided  in
specialized  institutions  such  as  schools,  vocational  institutions,  polytechnics, schools or institutions, colleges or universities, which exist solely for the purpose
of  teaching  a  clientele  according  to  a  set  pattern.  The  pattern  consists  of  such elements  as  grades  or  classes,  prescribed  syllabuses  and  time-  tables,
examinations, academic awards and so forth. Cunningham  and  Cordeiro  2000  write  that  two  important  aspects  of
formal  organizational  structure  are  norms  and  roles.  Scott  in  Cunningham  and Cordeiro 2000 defines these two elements: norms are the two generalized rules
governing  behavior  that  specify,  in  particular,  appropriate  means  for  pursuing goals; and roles are expectations for or evaluative standards employed in assessing
the  behavior  of  occupants  of  specific  social  positions.  Loveless  and  Jasin  in Cunningham  and  Cordeiro  2000  writes  that  in  addition  to  defining  work  roles
and authority relations, formal organizations also explicitly define and codify such

details as the organization’s channels of communication, policies and procedures, and norms and sanctions.
Wahab  2008  states  that  there  are  some  characteristics  of  formal organization:  1 the activities’ structure  is arranged clearly; 2  communication  in
the  formal  organization  is  arranged  in  a  good  order  based  on  the  organizer;  3 formal  organization  is  permanent  relatively  in  order  to  get the  widest  objectives
and long range plan; 4 formal organization is able to develop rapidly because of the  raising  of  the  specialization  inside;  5  there  are  the  personnel’s  substitution,
elevation and stopping; 6 formal organization has norms as the policies including how to appointment of a chairman and personnel; 7  it is established rationally; 8
there  are  formal  ways  to  solve  the  problems;  9  there  are  a  hierarchy  services within formal organization.
Smith 2001 states that formal  education  is the  hierarchically  structured, chronologically  graded  education  system,  running  from  primary  school  through
the university and including, in addition to general academic studies, a variety of specialized  programs  and  institutions  for  full-time  technical  and  professional
training. Faculty of Education 2008 states that formal learning refers to learning through a program of instruction in an educational institution, adult training centre
or  in  the  workplace,  which  is  generally  recognized  in  a  qualification  or  a certificate.
