What 85.33.0 includes

• This subclass encompasses the provision of post-secondary education, general education, and vocational education that cannot be considered tertiary education. This level concerns post-secondary education, non-tertiary secondary education, and vocational training. This may also include supplementary post-secondary education in preparation for tertiary education or post-secondary non-tertiary vocational education.
• However, this subclass is not relevant in the Dutch context. This type of education only pertains to specialist training within MBO or non-formal post-MBO. The specialist training is an MBO4 program that can be pursued after obtaining another MBO program at level 3 or 4. Because the specialist training programs are offered at the same educational institutions as the other regular MBO programs, this category probably cannot be observed separately. Non-formal post-MBO provided in the course and private spheres may not be included here; see the paragraph 'does not include' below.
