Methodological explanations
A post-secondary school is an educational institution organized on the basis of the curriculum of a post-primary school, enabling people with general secondary education to obtain a diploma confirming vocational qualifications or qualifications in a profession after passing a vocational examination. The education lasts no longer than 2.5 years. Graduates, after passing an external examination, receive a diploma that specifies vocational qualifications at the level of a technician or skilled worker. In statistics, post-secondary schools also include three-year colleges for social service workers.
