P - 17 What highest level of academic education has [name] completed?
36. Under highest academic educational level completed a apace has been provided to write the year and the educational level completed by each person who has ever attended an educational institution (including correspondence schools). Write the highest level completed whether a person is still attending full time or part-time or has attended previously and is not attending now. Enter the appropriate code in the boxes provided. The codes are given in the last column below on page 32 and in Appendix 5b on page 96. For persons who were educated outside Zambia, write the appropriate Zambian equivalent of the level reached.

[Examples are omitted here.]

38. The level completed is the qualification or attendance (i.e. degree, diploma, certificate, etc.) that an individual has acquired, whether by full-time study, part-time study or private study, whether conferred in the home country or abroad, and whether conferred by educational authorities, special examining bodies or professional bodies. The acquisition of an educational qualification, therefore, implies the successful completion of a course of study.
