What does “an acceptable combination of education, training and/or experience” actually mean?
A “combination” is normally two or more things. An “acceptable combination” may be education and training, or education and experience, or training and experience. It may also be education, training and experience. The word “acceptable” refers to acceptability for a position as determined by the manager, unless otherwise regulated by the employer. NOTE: The EX Group Qualification Standard requires that education be specifically defined and therefore the “acceptable combination” wording is not acceptable.
