So do secretaries taking one year of what is called "business school" (i.e., vocational training -- typing, filing, steno, and today, wordprocessing) count in the total of people having post-secondary education? As well as people taking course is say, printer repair, from schools that advertise on the buses? And do people getting a purely vocation education of less than two years duration (whether done as revamped community colleges, like your own, or at pure and simply vocational schools) make up a substantial proportion of those who are listed as having post-secondary education?
