[Oer-community] Our discussion of essential information for a map...

[Teobaldo Rivas]

Dear Susan, excellent suggestion. I agree with you. The ISCED can serve as a reference for classifying levels of education and also the knowledge areas of higher education or tertiary stage. All the best, Teobaldo
