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
----------------------------------
Generated by the ERF.
For those who never attended school or attended and completed, the highest level of education attained was used to estimate the number of years of schooling completed. While for those who were attending school at the time of the survey or previously dropped-out, the level and the class currently attending/last attended was used.
Those who can read & write or have a literacy certificate were assumed to have completed 2 years.
