Interviewer instructions

You must finish all of section 2 for one household member before going on to the next
member. If you ask all members one page at a time, it is easy to miss skip patterns and waste
time of the household.

: Question 8 allows you to record a maximum of 3 highest degrees
attained. Question 9 should record the code of the field of study corresponding to the three
degrees in question 8.
Record the three highest degrees attained as listed by the member of the household. If
there is a member with more than 3 types of degrees of a similar level, then record the degrees
related to the current occupation. If none of the three degrees is related to the current work, then
ask the member of the household to choose which degrees to record. If the household member
also can’t choose, then record the three degrees received most recently
