Baháʼí topics may be minimized in favor of a general curriculum, often with an internationalist form, with accreditation from a variety of sources. Foremost among them is Green Acre, "paradigmatic of a Baháʼí institution", founded in 1894 for exploring religious diversity seeking unity, and the first Baháʼís appearing there in 1901.

Types of education are commonly divided into formal ...
