Õppeasutus is an Estonian term that translates to "educational institution" in English. It encompasses a broad range of places where learning and education take place. This includes everything from early childhood education centers and kindergartens to primary schools, secondary schools (gymnasiums and vocational schools), and higher education institutions like universities and colleges. The term also covers institutions offering adult education and professional development.

The primary function of an õppeasutus is to facilitate the acquisition of knowledge, skills, and competencies. They are structured environments with defined curricula, pedagogical approaches, and qualified educators. Estonian law outlines the framework for the establishment, operation, and oversight of these institutions, ensuring a certain standard of quality and accessibility.

They play a crucial role in the development of individuals and society by preparing citizens for personal growth, civic participation, and the workforce.
