Notes
GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
If the variable is not available in the original data, it can be generated using the highest level of education attained. However, the number of years of schooling required to complete different education levels is country specific.
If the level of education attained is also not provided, this variable will be missing.
Only the years of schooling successfully completed should be counted. Thus, those repeated should not be taken into consideration while generating this variable.


COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
The variables for a successfully completed stage/grade and the current stage/grade were not compiled due to COVID-19 conditions.

Instead of them, a variable (EDU_CODE) was used to generate this variable.

Those who can read & write or have a literacy certificate were assumed to have completed 2 years and who can read or write only were assumed to have completed 1 year.
