Certified Bookkeeper Explanation: In the context of a (Cuban) diploma from a technical high school, I don't see any more reason to use the word "high school" than I would to use the word "University" (or "Community College") in a translation of a terciary degree. The reality is that many people (especially in small businesses) who call themselves "bookkeepers" probably have not graduated from universities. Indeed, if they have, they might call themselves "accountants" (and charge more). :-) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs (2006-07-23 02:49:28 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Since in the authoritarian regime of Cuba, there is likely only one entity that "certifies" all types of professionals, the term "Certified" is probably the best option in regards to using a word that conveys legitimacy (which such a diploma would clearly carry in Cuban society). As for my (2nd) comment above, excuse me: that's "may not have graduated" :-) |
