Maturita
The successful completion of matriculation examination (maturitná skúška, "maturita") is a prerequiste for successful completion of upper-secondary education and entry into the higher education in Slovakia. The number of subjects and the compulsory subjects differ according to the type of school and study field. The examination has an internal and external part. The external part (for national language, minority languages, foreign languages and mathematics) is conducted by the National Institute for Certified Education Measurements that prepares, organizes, and evaluates the tests. The name of the qualification credential issued after successfully passing the matriculation examination is Vysvedčenie o maturitnej skúške (Matriculation Examination Certificate). The Matriculation Examination Certificate is the basic entry condition for higher education, other entry conditions are stipulated by the HEI or the faculty.

EURYDICE: Education System of Slovakia

The post-secondary study is divided as follows:
Qualification study, in which pupils acquire a vocational qualification in a field of study other than the one they took the school-leaving examination in. The study is completed by a vocational component of the school-leaving examination that was not a part of the previously taken school-leaving examination. Qualification study is only provided by secondary vocational schools.
Specialisation study, in which pupils obtain special knowledge and skills, including new scientific and technical knowledge required for the pursuit of specific work activities and functions, which correspond to the previously completed field of study in terms of the work duties. The study is completed by the graduate examination and successful specialisation study graduates achieve higher vocational education. Specialisation study is provided by secondary vocational schools and schools of applied arts.
Higher vocational study, in which pupils obtain special knowledge and skills, including new scientific and technical knowledge required for the pursuit of specific work activities and functions. It is designed for applicants who have previously achieved secondary vocational education or full general secondary education. The study is completed by the graduate examination and successful higher vocational study graduates achieve higher vocational education. Higher vocational study is provided by secondary vocational schools and schools of applied arts.

Higher vocational education (ISCED 554/EQF 5) is completed by the graduate examination; the certificate of the achieved level of education is the Certificate of Graduate Examination and the certificate of the acquired qualification is the Graduation Diploma, which authorises graduates to use the title of “Diploma Specialist” (DiS) for secondary vocational school study fields or "Diploma Arts Specialist" (Dis.art) for conservatories and schools of applied arts study fields.

Higher vocational education is not part of higher education and is not counted towards the higher education degree.
