Quick query. I have filled out a number of non veterinary related surveys over time and one question I come across that makes me wonder from time to time is &amp;#39;What is your highest level of education?&amp;#39; The options are usually limited and vary but</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 10</generator><item><title>RE: RVN qualification equivalent to a ??</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/171631?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 02 Mar 2018 17:31:15 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:88bfab88-987a-46b2-bf40-109844246489</guid><dc:creator>ChrisRossiter</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;If im honest . I couldn&amp;#39;t give two about the level done according to that list.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m more skilled and awesome than most on level 4,5 and maybe 6.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why? Because I&amp;#39;m an RVN.&amp;nbsp; :)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: RVN qualification equivalent to a ??</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/171623?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 01 Mar 2018 19:49:40 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:7253ea6e-2c7e-41e4-82ec-50444607b300</guid><dc:creator>r-more</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;ChrisRossiter&amp;quot;]...It&amp;#39;s far far beyond the level of A-levels.[/quote]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The issue with qualification levels is that they don&amp;rsquo;t convey the breadth of the qualification. As an example, a person who has studied one A-level has studied at the same level as someone who does three A-levels but three takes more time. A college local to me runs a level 3 certificate and a level 3 diploma in a particular subject, both level 3 but the certificate is one year and the diploma is two years.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: RVN qualification equivalent to a ??</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/171621?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 01 Mar 2018 17:48:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:428598f6-212f-4a8b-a45c-971198d62b5c</guid><dc:creator>ChrisRossiter</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;apache&amp;quot;]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The level 3 diploma is the same academic level as A levels&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;[/quote]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Which is ridiculous to put it that level really .&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Learn around the same depth I suppose but the fact you have to do NPL alongside, Osces and then become an RVN, It&amp;#39;s far far beyond the level of A-levels.&lt;/p&gt;
