Indicate your highest level of education

[migwelder]

I did not finish college, only attended 3 years and that makes me undergraduate (my course is Computer Science). What will I choose under the highest education I attained?

1)Did not complete secondary school (also called high school)

2)Obtained a secondary school credential

3)Obtained a one-year diploma, trade certificate or apprenticeship and completed at least 12 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies

4)Obtained a one-year diploma, trade certificate or apprenticeship and completed at least 13 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies

5)Obtained a one-year university degree at the bachelor’s level and completed at least 13 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies

6)Obtained a two-year diploma, trade certificate or apprenticeship and completed at least 14 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies

7)Obtained a university degree of two years or more at the bachelor’s level and completed at least 14 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies

8)Obtained a three-year diploma, trade certificate or apprenticeship (other than university) and completed at least 15 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies

9)Obtained two or more university degrees at the bachelor’s level and completed at least 15 years of full-time or full-time equivalent studies

10)Obtained a master’s or Ph.D. and completed at least 17 years of full-time education or full-time equivalent studies

I presume, you did not get a certificate at the end of the 3 years or sometime during the 3 years. I also presume you have finished your high s school. Then you are number 2 (at least by my understanding)

But I have a trade certificate in welding.

I have over 5 years in working as a welder, have trade certification which is the National Certificate in GMAW welding issued by the Philippine gorvernment, 3 years of college studies (not completed).

you are confusing work experience and training with education

what do you mean by college? is this tertiary education?

normal counting rules for points is: what qualification did you achieve (i.e. the list you quote), and how many years of full time education, or equivalent, did you undertake to achieve that qualification

child wonders may get a university degree by the age of 15 with only ten years of education, but you need to count the number of years first, then the qualification

sadly, attending university for four years and not graduating is equivalent to not having attended university at all
