Spanish term

CENTROS UNIVERSITARIOS DE FORMACIÓN MEDIA

Spanish to English Social Sciences Education / Pedagogy
Hi - in a list of teaching and training centres, there are two I'm stuck on - Centros universitarios de formación media and centros de enseñanza media - no further context, just a list of training/techning centres with which a company has internship agreements. Thanks!

Discussion

Paul Lambert (asker) Jun 17, 2007:
Sorry to shatter your illusions Henry - there is no further context - this is a list of socially responsible activities undertaken by a company, and all that appears concerning this is "international agreements with various centros universitarios de formación media" - nothing else.
Henry Hinds Jun 12, 2007:
There's always further CONTEXT: country of origin, names of institutions, etc.

intermediate level colleges

Hi Paul.
I would say that
centros universitarios de formación media => intermediate level colleges, and
centros de enseñanza media => secondary education schools

Even though (according to the references found) in the United States
intermediate level colleges seem to be restricted to military training, this noun seems to be an acceptable English translation for “centros universitarios de formación media” as it is used in several countries.

Hope this be of some help,
Manuel
====

The ministry operates 14 nonuniversity training centers. These intermediate-level colleges are dedicated to training students in specific professions, such as management, accountancy, teacher training, journalism, and social welfare. Entry into the colleges is predicated on completion of lower secondary school, plus extended academic exposure to senior secondary education. Courses last two or three years and students graduating from these institutions are awarded diplomas or certificates.

The purpose of AET is to enable rural producers to realise higher returns on their labour and investments. This can be done directly through farmer training. It can also be achieved indirectly by educating extension staff, by developing researchers or by building the technical capacities of producer organisations and input suppliers. These different audiences are reached through different levels and types of AET, ranging from informal farmer training, through intermediate level agricultural colleges that prepare farm managers and extension specialists, to post-graduate faculties of agriculture where researchers are trained.

agree dcspanish : Yes, in the US we speak of 2-year colleges and 4-year universities -- colleges provide an intermediate-level higher education degree.

University centers for High School education

Either they are High Schools that are part of a University, or they are colleges within a university that train teachers who will teach in high schools.

Centros de enseñanza media, por lo menos en esta parte de latinoamérica serían las escuelas secundarias, high-schools; enseñanza superior es universidad o profesorados u otras instituciones posteriores a la escuela secundaria que ofrezcan`- por lo menos- título de grado.

Espero haya sido de ayuda, aunque todo depende del contexto.
