e-Learning: India II: Secondary and Technical Education (VIDEO)

Length: 01:03:59

Because the majority of Indian students seek admission to graduate programs in the United States, an understanding of the country's secondary education system is often neglected. The same is also true for Indian technical education - a broad system operating apart from the formal academic sector at all levels of education.

An understanding of these two areas of Indian education will help any admissions officer or credential evaluator to make knowledgeable and informed decisions.  

Topics:

• School recognition and degree-granting authority
• Secondary degree structure, including recent changes
• Technical education, both formal and informal
• U.S. equivalence
• Official documentation and sample educational documents

Presenter:

• Timothy Kell
