In this case, post is a prefix, not a standalone word. Therefore, it should be properly hyphenated as post-secondary.
Ordinarily it is spelled as the hyphenated form "post-secondary."
No the s in "secondary" does not need to be capitalized since Postsecondary is usually seen as one word.
Secondary basically means high school, so post-secondary means after high school. Any college degree that you get after high school, whether it be an Associate's Degree, Bachelor's Degree, or Master's Degree, is considered a post-secondary degree.
Post-secondary training is considered any sort of education after high school. It is offered by colleges, vocation schools, and anything that provides educational for a certificate or degree.
R. A. Bosetti has written: 'The Alberta system of post-secondary non-university education' -- subject(s): Higher Education, Postsecondary education
A post secondary institution provides educational learning opportunities beyond high school level learning. Examples include universities, colleges, and technical trade schools.
Primary education is grade school, grades 1-6. Secondary education is high school, (or junior high school followed by high school) which is grades 7-12. Post secondary education is college or university. And graduate school is post-graduate education.
College is considered post-secondary education.
Post secondary education is the educational level following the completion of a school providing a secondary education. This would include high school (secondary school). Thus, any degree in higher education following secondary school is considered post secondary, if not then it is not post secondary.
I have attended two post-secondary schools.
when you learn about post
In North American school systems, and some European ones, there is a mandatory course of study for all children which is generally divided into two sections: a primary or elementary section for younger children from which they graduate to a secondary section or "high school". Once the secondary section is completed, the mandatory course is completed. Students do, however, pursue studies voluntarily after completing their secondary education in universities, colleges, trade schools, seminaries and the like. They are called "post-secondary" since they are attended after (this is the meaning of "post" in this context) secondary education.
