2 Tertiary Education

Teriary education was usually an apprenticeship to a person with the desired profession. Most often, the understudy was called a "secretary" and had the duty of carrying on all the normal business of the "master."

The early biographies of nobles probably show the ultimate form of classical education: A tutor. One early, much-emulated classic example was that Alexander the Great was tutored by Aristotle. Other forms of instruction seem to be attempts to achieve similar results for less expense.
