education/qualification

[Naeem Afzal]

Hi teachers,

Are these sentences correct? If yes, tell me which one is better.

What is your education?
What is your qualification?

Thank you.

They are both rather unnatural. What is the context in which you want to use them?

Who is asking these questions, and who is being asked to reply? Are they questions being asked in an interview?

 

[Naeem Afzal]

It may be; in an interview, a stranger. I just want to know what is the best way to ask?

 

[bhaisahab]

You could ask "What educational qualifications do you have?"

 

[Naeem Afzal]

Thank you.

I wonder if I can use "What education do you have"?

I am sure "What qualifications do you have" is correct. But I am not certain about the aforementioned sentence.

That would be a very odd thing to ask a complete stranger.
