In the USA, a diploma is usually associated with high school education, which is equivalent to level 3 in the Qualifications Framework. However, certain specialized or vocational programs also offer diplomas at the post-secondary level (level 5 or above). References: 1. The US Department of Education states high school completion as a diploma on its website (https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/lis..., see under 'Secondary Education') 2. The EducationUSA website, managed by the Department of State, mentions post-secondary diplomas (https://educationusa.state.gov/your-5..., see under 'Vocational/Technical Training').
