Interviewer instructions
11.5.2. Educational characteristics. Questions 7-10, referring to the enumerated person's educational characteristics, are presented to those 5 years of age and older.
b) Question 8. Level of education. The levels of education that exist in the country are found printed on the census form. In order to avoid erroneous answers from the informant, who might not know all of them [levels of education], the levels are read out loud. Whenever possible, the enumerator should also judge the veracity of the answers according to the level of sophistication of the interviewee or enumerated person if present. Vocational studies (commercial, industrial, and normal) or studies carried out in agricultural institutes are classified as "5 X Secondary".
c) Question 9. Last year completed. Once the level of education is determined, the highest grade completed in that level is requested. Note that the last grade studied is not marked; rather the last year actually completed is recorded.
