Abstract
The International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED) was designed by UNESCO in the early 1970’s to serve ‘as an instrument suitable for assembling, compiling and presenting statistics of education both within individual countries and internationally’.
Slightly modified reprint of the official UNESCO document from November 1997. The original document and the Operational Manual for ISCED 1997 can be found at: http:// www.uis.unesco.org/en/pub/pub0.htm.
