Anne Key A question by Anne Key. Also can't agree with 'education level'. "werk- en denkniveau" suggests that the level has been reached, not necessarily through education. Of course I agree that the archives are the first place to look if you have a question!
MoiraB Aug 3, 2009:
I would agree - if I could find that particular entry! Doesn't appear under any of the 'denkniveau' entries I can find, either via the search function or via google. By contrast, the info provided by Ken Cox and Chris Hopley is very useful and thought-provoking.
Oliver Pekelharing Aug 3, 2009:
Yes, but 'thinking and working level' doesn't sound at all idiomatic, imo!
MoiraB Aug 3, 2009:
check archives? apologies if this appears twice - nothing happened first time! Check 'denkniveau' in the archives for ideas - this has come up a couple of times in different forms.
MoiraB Aug 3, 2009:
check archives? search for 'denkniveau' in the KOG. This has been asked a couple of times in different forms.

academic level

Depending on the context, you could use "at (an) academic level". Eg. "knowledge at academic level".
