General
Information.
In Sweden there are no formal job titles for IT-related vocations related to
people with only upper secondary student level. Looking at the information
regarding job titles at the Swedish National Labour Market Administration (AMV),
you only find job titles for people with upper secondary level, with further
studies at a high school or high school university level added. There are,
however, no formal specific descriptions in form of curricula for the job
titles represented.
Existing job titles described at AMV are:

Efforts
have been taken to establish job titles based upon expressed needs at the
labor market. Several programs exist in the post upper secondary level study
form, called Advanced Vocational Training.
One example is AVT – exam from System Technician/System administrator, as
