! Interpret with caution. Standard error is more than one-half the estimate. 1 Employer overrode other types of instructional providers; see the glossary for more detail on instructional providers. 2 All other races includes Asian/Pacific Islander, Native Hawaiian, American Indian, Alaska Native, those of more than one race, and those of other (unspecified) race. Race categories exclude those of Hispanic origin. 3 Includes only adults who worked in the past 12 months. NOTE: The estimates in this table were based on information that was collected on up to four work-related courses taken in the 12 months prior to the interview. If an adult took more than four courses, four were sampled for data collection. Detail may sum to greater than 100 percent because participants may have taken more than one course.
