Interviewer instructions
<span class="h3">B. Educational characteristics</span></p>

<p><span class="em">11. What is the highest level of study that you have studied or completed?</span>
<br />If the answer corresponds to one of the first three levels (none, literacy center, or pre-primary), the enumerator will skip to question 15.</p>

<p>If the answer is among the alternatives 4, 5, 6, or 7, the corresponding mark is made and the enumerator will proceed to the following question.</p>

<p><span class="ital">Reminder</span>: Post-secondary non-tertiary education takes place after secondary (middle education) but is not at the tertiary level. E.g.: studies in the Teaching School, Pan American Agricultural School of Zamoran, National Agricultural School of Olancho.</p>

<p><span class="em">12. What is the highest grade you completed?</span>
<br />This refers to the last year completed in the level of studies corresponding to the previous question and not the current year or semester of studies.</p>

<p>[These instructions refer to an illustration of the concept "last year completed"]
