1. 'Total postsecondary' includes the category 'Certificate or diploma below bachelor'. This education group is not shown separately due to potential data quality issues that can result from small counts that arise when several variables are cross-tabulated. 2. The overall quality of data for the 'Highest certificate, diploma or degree' variable in the 2006 Census is acceptable. However, users of data from the category 'university certificate or diploma below the bachelor level' should be aware that the 2006 Census showed unexpected growth in this category, compared with 2001. We recommend users interpret the 2006 Census results with caution. For more details, see: Census questions on education: Some important changes.
