Answer:

B. postsecondary education.

Step-by-step explanation:

The term or phrase that describes all types of colleges is "postsecondary education" since the term "secundary" is related to medical education, so "postsecondary is education that you can only access after high school.

At this level we have the universities and colleges (technical colleges).

Almost all post-secondary institutions have the authority to grant academic credentials, ie diplomas or degrees. In general terms: universities give degrees - bachelors, masters, doctorates, postdocs, and college within a university is called university college; colleges, which typically offer vocational programs, award diplomas and certificates.

B. Post Secondary is the correct answer. 'Post' means 'after' hence post secondary implies its after high school,whereas four-year colleges is shallow because not all colleges offer skills that run for four years, unlike a high school diploma because diplomas are always offered in middle and technical colleges and not in high school.
