my product owner came to me with this problem:
Our application supports multi-language and is used by users in different countries. OK!
On a form the user is asked to supply the academic level of a person. OK!
The problem is that academic levels do not exactly match between countries.
I suggested we define agnostic levels and then just give their representative name for each country depending on the selected language for example.
Am I thinking of it correctly?
Sure this is no new problem, anyone got it?
How have you solved it?
Thanks!
Alex
This is a fairly common problem that can be solved using agnostic items, but in most situations, the form is modified for the specific country’s needs. This will ensure the site is user friendly for each individual country.
