	~~The '''~~Education by Age, Sex, and Level~~''' display provides a visual representation of educational attainment within a population~~, ~~categorized by age, sex, and level of education. To access this display, navigate to the '''~~Display~~''' menu~~ from the Main Menu, select ~~'''~~Specialized Displays by Issues~~''',~~ and then ~~choose '''~~Education by Age, Sex, and Level~~'''~~. ~~Alternatively~~, ~~this feature can~~ also ~~be accessed~~ through the [[Main_Menu_Map_Pop-up\|Main Menu Map Pop-up]] options.		To access the Education by Age, Sex, and Level option, select Display from the Main Menu, then select sub-option Specialized Displays by Issues and then Education by Age, Sex, and Level. Education by Age, Sex, and Level is also accessible through the [[Main_Menu_Map_Pop-up\|Main Menu Map Pop-up]] options.

	~~This display divides~~ educational attainment ~~into distinct categories,~~ each ~~represented~~ by a ~~unique~~ color. ~~These categories include~~:		Education by Age, Sex, and Level displays are broken down into levels of educational attainment with each level of attainment being distinguished by a different color. Educational attainment is broken down as follows: no formal education, primary education, secondary education, tertiary education and those too young to achieve formal education. Check with the legend at the top of the graph to see what colors represent what level of educational attainment.

	* '''Children''' (too young for formal education)		These graphs can be projected through time using the Advance and Regress features under the Time menu option located above the chart. Additionally, you can switch from country/region to group by using the toggle on the top menu bar. Using the Distribution Type option at the top of this screen you can select only those who did not attain any formal education, those who attained primary or more, those with secondary or more, or those with tertiary levels of educational attainment.
	* '''No formal education or ~~incomplete primary education''' (red)~~
	* '''Completed primary education only''' (green)
	* '''Completed through secondary ~~education''' (yellow)~~
	* '''Completed through tertiary ~~education''' (blue)~~

	~~The legend at~~ the ~~bottom~~ of the ~~graph identifies which color corresponds to each level~~ of ~~attainment~~.		You are also able to display information as a product of the base case or of a working file. Click on the Change Display option from the toolbar, then the Change Scenario sub-option. You then have the choice of the base case or a working file.

	Users can explore how educational attainment evolves over time using the '''Advance''' and '''Regress''' options under the Time menu. This allows projections to be displayed for different years. The toggle at the top of the display enables users to switch between viewing data for individual countries or regions and for broader groups. Additionally, the '''Distribution Type''' dropdown lets users refine the data to focus on specific levels of education, such as only those with no formal education or those who have completed tertiary education.		The chart below is the projected educational attainment by cohort and sex of Tanzania for the year 2010. Remember, in order to display [[Repeated_Features#Country/Region,_Group_or_Geography-List\|groups instead of countries/regions]], you have to toggle between the Groups and the Countries/Regions buttons.

	The chart ~~displayed here~~ is ~~an example of~~ educational attainment in Tanzania for the year ~~2020 (Base Year), broken down by cohort and sex~~. ~~The graph uses a population pyramid format~~, ~~where the horizontal axis represents the population~~ in ~~millions, while the vertical axis represents age groups. Males are displayed on the left, and females on the right. To view aggregated data for groups instead of individual countries or regions-~~[[Repeated_Features#Country/Region,_Group_or_Geography-List\|groups instead of countries/regions]], ~~use~~ the ~~toggle labeled '''Group'''~~ and ~~'''Country~~/~~Region''' at the top of the display~~.

	~~The Cost of Education Goals display estimates the financial requirements for achieving educational targets.

	~~==== Scale-up Cost Display Window ====~~
	This display allows users to analyze the costs of achieving specific educational attainment goals. On the left-hand side, select a country to examine, or toggle the '''Group Options''' at the top to view groups, g-lists, or decomposed groups. After selecting a country or group, choose a pre-loaded scenario from the list, such as "Policy First" or "Markets First."

	Next, define the educational attainment goals by setting the percentage of total enrollment for primary, secondary, or tertiary education. Specify the start year and the target year to determine the timeframe for achieving these goals.		[[File:Useifs16.PNG\|frame\|right\|Scale-up Cost Display Window]]

	At the ~~bottom~~ of the display, ~~additional options allow for refining~~ the ~~analysis~~. ~~Variables such as unit costs, enrollment rate differentials~~, ~~and costs as a percentage~~ of ~~GDP or government consumption can be selected and added to~~ the ~~variable display box~~.		From here, users can identify the costs of achieving selected educational attainment goals for different units of countries or groups. On the left hand side of the display, users can select a country to examine. Change this list to a list of groups, g-lists or decomposed groups by toggling the Group Options at the top of this menu. After selecting a country, choose one of the Scenarios that are pre-loaded into IFs.

	~~Once the parameters are set~~, ~~visualize the results using one~~ of ~~the output options: a table~~, ~~line graph, or bar graph. These outputs provide a clear~~ and ~~flexible way~~ to ~~compare costs and evaluate the impact of different scenarios~~.		After choosing a country or group as well as a run-file, next select your educational attainment goals. This can be accomplished by deciding what percentage of total enrollment you would like to highlight, as well as in what year you would like to start and what year you would like to end.

	~~==== Example Application ====~~		Then, select the results that you would like to see. Click any of the boxes at the bottom of this display option and these variables will be loaded into the variable display box. Finally, choose your output: either a table, line graph or bar graph to visualize your results.
	~~For instance~~, ~~if a policymaker wants~~ to ~~achieve universal primary education in a specific country by 2030~~, ~~they can set~~ a ~~100% enrollment target for primary education~~, ~~choose the starting year, and analyze how costs evolve over time under different scenarios. The display helps identify funding gaps and policy priorities~~.
