Description
Definition
EDUCBR usually indicates the person's educational attainment in Brazil in terms of the amount of schooling completed -- both the level (for example, primary, secondary, or higher education) and typically the number of years or grades completed at that level. For some classifications, the variable indicates the level or grade that the person is currently attending; all such classifications are explicitly indicated in the code labels for EDUCBR.
