Studying in the final 9th grade, you should seriously think about the future: is it worth going further to 10-11 grades or getting a professional education, but not higher, but secondary? What is more important in this case and guarantees a job in the specialty? This will be discussed later.
Some students and their parents are also interested in what a
high school diploma looks like. These two pressing issues, as well as some others, will be addressed in this article.
What is secondary vocational education?
You should immediately understand what constitutes secondary vocational education (VET), how profoundly the professions are studied, and also choose the level of training.
As a rule, in the 1st year, students study externally according to the program of grades 10 and 11. When a student finishes the first year and moves on to the second, we can assume that he has a full secondary education. But in order to take this into account formally, you need to complete at least 2-3 full courses. In the diploma of secondary vocational education, the name of the specialty is entered, when only the disciplines that the student managed to study are indicated in the certificate of incomplete secondary vocational education.
Open source software is available at colleges, technical schools , and colleges. As a rule, even in subjects related to a specialty, an in-depth theoretical study does not occur. Open source software seeks to provide only the most basic information about the profession. In addition, the duration of studies is from two to four years, not counting 1 course studying the school curriculum.
When can I go to college?
Colleges, vocational schools and technical schools, as well as schools accept graduates of the 9th and 11th grades. There are exceptions when some vocational schools take even eighth-graders, and also someone who in the 10th grade changed their minds to continue their studies until the end can act.
Sometimes children themselves strive to get a diploma of secondary vocational education rather in order to successfully find a job during or immediately after receiving a diploma.
Only in order to go to college or college, you need to pass exams or provide the results of the exam. It is worth noting that, unlike universities, the requirements for admission are much less:
- you need to take only two subjects on the profile;
- entrance exam (if required) is much easier;
- the cost of training (for a fee) is cheaper.
Thus, in most cases, ACT is preferable, especially for those students who are poorly or satisfactorily doing in school.
What does a diploma look like
Let's take a closer look at the sample diploma of secondary vocational education. Only we will talk about the state model.
If you expand it, we will see on the left side the phrase "Diploma of secondary vocational education." It is noted below what level of education the student received: basic or advanced. It all depends on what specialty, level of training. But an increased level can be obtained not with the general flow of students, but separately. For example, a basic level in a specialty related to information technology can be obtained within four years, but in order to be advanced, you need to submit an application to continue training in the 5th year in order to gain in-depth knowledge.
Next, the registration number of the diploma inside the educational institution, as well as the state number are noted. We will continue to further study the sample and description of the diploma of secondary vocational education. On the right is information about:
- where is the document received;
- to whom and when issued;
- what qualification is assigned and what specialty is given;
- issued by.
On the occasion of the change of surname by the owner of the diploma, a certificate of change of surname or marriage should be presented in the future.
A diploma of secondary vocational education is issued along with an insert that lists all disciplines, the number of hours and grades.
Secondary or higher education?
Often schoolchildren have a question: higher or secondary special education? If there is a desire to go to work already from the age of 18 in a sought-after profession, for example, an accountant or a nurse / paramedic, then it is better to choose a college. Moreover, after graduating from it, you can go to university. College students are more likely to find a job in a specialty with a decent salary.
You examined the example of a diploma of secondary vocational education, learned about some of the advantages of secondary special education. We wish you a successful professional choice on your journey!
