Examples of institutions that provide post-secondary education are vocational schools, Community College s and Universities in the United States , the TAFE s in Australia , CEGEP s in Quebec (Canada) and the IEK s in Greece . They are sometimes known collectively as tertiary institutions. Tertiary education generally results in the receipt of Certificate s, Diploma s,or Academic Degree s. IMPRECISION There can be disagreement about what precisely constitutes post-secondary or tertiary education: :"It is not always clear, though, what tertiary education includes. Is it only that which results in a formal qualification or might it include leisure classes? In the UK, are A-levels tertiary education as they are post-compulsory but taught in school settings as well as colleges? Is professional updating or on-the-job training part of tertiary education, even if it does not follow successful completion of secondary education?" Analytic Quality Glossary NOTES SEE ALSO |
