This workshop offers practices and guidelines for interpreting education documentation. Gain insights into specific features of Filippino and Vietnamese documentation to assess applicants’ education history and suitability for study. Engage in practical case studies to refine your assessment skills.

For the Philippines, the session will include an overview of varying tracks at secondary level and high school diplomas. For higher education, the session covers pre-2022 bachelor's degrees and the recent changes to the bachelor's degrees with grade 12 entry requirements, types of institutions, as well as the most common postgraduate qualifications.

With applications from Vietnamese students increasing globally, it is important that organizations involved in international education are up to speed with the education system to be able to make robust decisions.
