There is considered in the article an educational correlate of the human being’s ability to transcend. In this philosophical-anthropological research, the author makes an attempt of theoretical comprehension of transcending as a mechanism of educational self-construction of the human being. A metaphysical idea of the possibility of final «completion of the human being» is criticized in the work. There is shown continuous educational processuality, which determines a self-creating way of existence of the human being. The author states a thesis about the necessity of using the onto-anthropological concept of «educational transcending» for theoretically effective study and description of education as a way of existence of the human being.
