Though these terms seems similar but there is major difference between them:

Education: This term is used for referring the learning and acquisition of knowledge, theories based on some institute either it's school or higher university where we learn a specialized education. Like Bachelors, Masters or Phd .

Training: This term is used for acquiring skills or trait in specific trade to overcome professional or personal development. It could be class room or On the job training.

Well, Learning include any source or method of developing oneself at any stage of life. a learning include all formal and non-formal methods for the development

There is  a pretty simple mechanism to these three;

Education is what we receive as information in school and colleges, from outersources. 

Learning is what we perceive after receiving those information, and how we process the information. What is important to us after processing  becomes our learning.

Training is how much we put those learning and education in practice. The more we use the memory of all the storage the more we learn.
