Secondary education is a field of study that prepares students to instruct and encourage adolescents in an educational environment. Programs within this branch of learning may teach leadership, organizational, and time management skills. Studies may include hands-on experience.

A diploma is awarded to a student for the successful completion of a course of study. Diplomas are offered at the secondary, undergraduate, and graduate levels. Individuals looking to supplement their careers or education can enroll in a diploma program. Diplomas can enhance a student’s skill set and qualifications by preparing them for a particular career. These programs usually take only a short time to complete.
