hi,
in einem CV der für UK bestimmt ist steht:
"von ... bis... Fachoberschule
(...) von.. bis.. Berufsoberschule"
Wie könnte man die beiden Schultypen am besten übersetzen? Gibt es irgendwo eine offizielle Übersetzung bzw Empfehlung seitens einer Behörde?
Vielen Dank,
Vampyre

college of further education
There are many potential ways to translate this term and I could not find a standardised term in English.
I think I would opt for "xxx college of further education" which is understood by most people in the UK and state what courses one has completed (vocational training / certificate in ... etc.) or what the colleges specialises in (particular vocational courses, perhaps?).
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/1787185.stm may shed some more light on this.
LEO gives "upper vocational school" and there is a debate about this term (http://dict.leo.org/cgi-bin/dict/forum.cgi?action=show&group...
"College of further education"
http://www.hla.flensburg.de/projekt/schueler/klassenp/ka-f2-...
"Vocational secondary school"
http://german.about.com/library/blschule.htm
"Advanced vocational school"
http://www.gewerbeschule-metzingen.de/gsm2000e/schoolsystem/...
"Full-time vocational school"

If it is intended to the UK, you could also mention that the qualifications were similar to NVQs or BTEC courses.
