CODING SCHEME OF ISCED-T
Coding scheme
20.
The ISCED-T coding scheme comprises five dimensions of classification of teacher training
programmes (see Table 2).
21.
The ISCED-T code is a sequence of five numbers in the order of the five dimensions.
22.
For the first dimension, the ISCED level of the teacher training programme is used.
23.
For the second dimension, if a teacher training programme leads to multiple target
teaching levels, all target levels are indicated in the second element of the ISCED-T code.
For example, programmes that qualify graduates to teach in lower and upper secondary
education, are coded as 9.
