Question:

My child has finished his/her higher education studies and wants to do another training course of a lower level. What am I entitled to?

Answer:

If your child continues with other studies after obtaining his/her main degree, it is a good idea to do so before he/she is 26.

NB: The amount of the education allowance you receive is based on the level of the studies or training, not the type of educational establishment attended. For example, language courses and many 'social promotion' courses are not regarded as higher education and do not as a rule qualify for the flat-rate education allowance.
