Questions and instructions
Literal question
Levels of education completed information
For persons who have completed several levels of education, state all. If several degrees in one education level are present, the last degree acquired is stated.
9.f. Do you have a technical college degree?
If yes:
____ Year of completion
____ Subject area
Question 9f, 9g:
Under field, the derived job title should not be stated, so not engineer, but rather air traffic engineer; not technician rather metallurgical technician, for example.
In the field information of graduates of pedagogical fields, it must be identifiable that it involves teacher/pedagogical studies, so not mathematics rather secondary school teacher of mathematics; mathematics teacher.
This also applies for specialists with completed technical college and university education that have completed pedagogical post graduate studies; so not electrical engineering rather vocational school teacher of electrical engineering; teacher of the career-oriented education in electrical engineering.
Not considered finished technical college and university studies are:
Post graduate studies; guest studies; examination for the master's certificate even if it was passed at a vocational college; completion of a vocational school.
For persons who have completed several levels of education, state all. If several degrees in one education level are present, the last degree acquired is stated.
