Educational Qualifications relate to education outside of primary and secondary school and are one of the most important indicators of socio-economic status. For non-English speakers they are likely to be related to the age and year of migration (younger age groups are more likely to have qualifications generally), and also to the level of skilled migration in the area. The recognition of overseas qualifications in Australia and the Census may also be a factor influencing the qualification levels of migrant communities. Non-English speaking populations may have higher or lower qualification levels than the total population, and this may be tied to Employment Status and Household Income.
