About this data
Number of female teachers at the post-secondary non-tertiary level expressed as a percentage of the total number of teachers (male and female) at the post-secondary non-tertiary level in a given school year. Teachers are persons employed full time or part time in an official capacity to guide and direct the learning experience of pupils and students, irrespective of their qualifications or the delivery mechanism, i.e. face-to-face and/or at a distance.
