Postsecondary education is any form of education you participate in after graduating high school.

• From kindergarten to Grade 8, you attend primary school. You might have called it elementary school. Primary school is your first school.
• After your first school comes your secondary school. High school.
• Since thirdary isn’t a word, postsecondary was chosen as the phrase to identify any kind of education after secondary.

So, generally, when we say postsecondary, it refers to college or university.

You don’t have to attend college or university to have a successful career

But it does help.

While some careers don’t specifically call for postsecondary education, most do. And generally, the more credentials you have, the better.

Why?

Two reasons.

• More credentials put your resume to the top of the pile when applying for work. An employer doesn’t know you, so all they have to go on is how qualified you look on paper.
• More credentials give you greater earning potential. If you are highly qualified for a job, you can negotiate for more money than the next person in line with fewer qualifications.
