Interviewer instructions
Question 11. What is the highest level of education that he/she attends or attended?

You should mark 'none' if the person being interviewed has not attended a formal educational center.

[ ] 9 Don't know
Question 12. What is the last grade or highest year that he/she completed in the indicated level?
Write the name of the grade, course of year that the person has passed in the level that the person indicated in the previous question. Take into account that, generally, the person answers the grade that he/she is currently attending and what the question asks is the last grade passed. For example, if he/she is attending second year of the university, write 1.
If the educational system in the university is a semester system, two semesters correspond to one year. On the other hand, for persons who passed or are studying in a literacy center, one year is the equivalent of two years of elementary school.
For example:
The person finished the third level of a literacy center, you should mark box 6.
For persons who are attending the first year of any level, mark box "0".
