What Sort of Courses Do Polish People Take?
October’s survey was the first time CBOS asked Poles about the courses they took to improve themselves and raise their qualifications beyond what they had achieved within the standard education system. The survey revealed that a majority (64%) of Polish people participated in supplementary courses or postgraduate studies to add to the knowledge and skills they had gained at school or university. Every sixth person surveyed (17%) said they had undertaken such a course within the last year, for one in eight (13%) it was within the last 2–3 years, every third respondent (34%) had taken a course less recently, while over a third of those surveyed (35%) had never done so.
