Education / Pedagogy / School report card
Italian term or phrase: Titolo
Hi all -

I am translating two Italian school report cards for an art school school and I am not sure how to accurately translate "Titolo" -- which can have an endless assortment of possible translations depending upon the context.

I have two report cards:
One for the 2011-2012 school year where I see under the name of the previous school:
Titolo: Diploma Scuola Media

And another for the 2012-2013 school year where I see under the name of the current school he's attending:
Titolo" Ammissione.

Any suggestions as to how to translate the word titolo?

Thanks so much!

This is a titolo di studio. My qualifications of this type are ma school certificates of education (O level and A level GCEs) and a university degree. Another qualification I have is as an MITI (qualified Member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting). Although I had to pass a stringent assessment process, I don't thinkg this qualification is a a "titolo" in Italian.
