Interviewer instructions
<svar a="all" v="ID00A414"><span class="em">Question 10: Highest certificate/diploma</span><br />The highest certificate/diploma is similar to the highest educational level [from which a person] graduated. Graduated is a classification for those who passed the highest level of a particular school with a certificate or diploma, regardless of whether the school is government or privately managed. In addition, a person who took the final examination at the highest level and passed is regarded as having graduated, even though the person did not go through the highest level. In the 2000 Population Census, highest education was divided into seven categories:<br />The highest certificate/diploma: <br /><div class="i1">1. No schooling<br />2. Primary school<br />3. Junior high school<br />4. Senior high school<br />5. College<br />6. Academy<br />7. Undergraduate</div><br />Blacken [the oval] of the appropriate box for the highest level of certificate/diploma that the respondent received. <br /><br /><span class="em">Note:</span><br />There is a possibility that a person completed a certain level of education, but that during the interview [he/she] was attending a lower level of education than what was achieved previously. Please reconfirm this matter by asking the respondent the question once more. If this situation appears frequently, please elaborate in the notes block by writing the name and serial number of the household member.<br /></svar>
