Education
The NBOG best practice guide separates education, knowledge and experience when notified bodies set qualification criteria for their staff by function. Education alone does not qualify someone; the three are assessed together.
Education: formal academic studies carried out on the context of national education programmes (e.g. technical diploma or bachelor degree).
