 It's both. Education can't be simply given to a person. It can be greatly helped by a competent teacher, but the person still has to work to achieve it. Doing that successfully is an accomplishment.
 What's odd is that this discussion group has a few denizens who think they can accomplish just as much without that tool.
 In modern parlance, they actually are the tools.
 

I don't think it's binary or Manichean.  That is, both or all can be true in different examples.
Examples abound of both autodidacts with gaping holes in their repertoire (me) and others who accomplished much from the same background (Franklin).
