[Image omitted here]
This question applies only when vocational training has been acquired. This is another two-part question and is the second of the four instances in which you are required to make two marks in the same row. The response area for the first part of the question is to the left of the bar or dividing line, and that for the second part to the right of the dividing line.

[Image omitted here]
[p.49]
Again, for this question you are concerned only with persons who have been or are being trained for some occupation. If therefore, the individual was not being trained for an occupation, then there will be no answer. If the person has been trained or is being trained then ask the question this way: "You mentioned that you were (he/she was) trained (is receiving training) in (vocation). Have you (has he/she) already completed this training?" If the answer is 'No', mark "Being Trained', and if 'Yes', mark "Training Completed".
