Hoe vertaal je een zin als = "Welk diploma of welke diploma's heb ik nodig voor een bepaalde job?"
Rietje
...or degree(s)
Explanation:
If you're talking about higher education (WO-onderwijs) then it's degree(s), i.e.

Aan de wo-opleidingen zijn de academische titels drs., mr., of ir. verbonden. De diploma's zijn gelijkwaardig aan die van traditionele universiteiten en hogescholen.

in plaats van \'for a paid job\' kan ook nog: to get a paid job\' of \'to be eligible for a paid job\' (dit is al een beetje nederig en gekunsteld, maar voor een job ...)
