Curso De Orientación Universitaria
The University Orientation Course () or COU was an academic level taught in Spain, its curriculum set by the Education Act 1970. It consisted of one single annual course, equivalent to the second year of the current bachillerato system. The previous completion of the three-year '' Bachillerato Unificado Polivalente'' (''BUP'') was an admission requirement. In order to be allowed to progress to the then-compulsory Spanish University Access Tests or ''Selectividad'', an academic grade of 5/10 in each subject was needed.

Bachillerato
The Spanish Baccalaureate (, ) is the post-16 stage of education in Spain, comparable to the A Levels in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, Highers in Scotland, the French Baccalaureate in France or the International Baccalaureate. It follows the ESO (compulsory stage of secondary education). After taking the ''Bachillerato'', a student may enter vocational training (Higher-level Training Cycles, ''Ciclos Formativos de Grado Superior'') or take the " ''PAU''" (also commonly known as " ''PEvAU''" or "''Selectividad''") exams in order to be admitted into a public university. There are two parts, a core curriculum with the compulsory subjects (" fase de acceso") and a specialist part (" fase de admisión") with a number of pre-selected branches to choose from. The latter of these is technically optional, however reaching the necessary grade is significantly harder or impossible to achieve.

International Baccalaureate
The International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO), more commonly known as the International Baccalaureate (IB), is a nonprofit foundation headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, and founded in 1968. It offers four educational programmes: the IB Diploma Programme and the IB Career-related Programme for students aged 16 to 19, the IB Middle Years Programme for students aged 12 to 16, and the IB Primary Years Programme for children aged 3 to 12. To teach these programmes, schools must be authorized by the International Baccalaureate. The organization's name and logo were changed in 2007 to reflect new structural arrangements. Consequently, "IB" may now refer to the organization itself, any of the four programmes, or the diploma or certificates awarded at the end of a programme. History Inception The foundations of the International Baccalaureate (IB) can be traced back to 1948, when Marie-Thérèse Maurette authored Educational Techniques for Peace. Do They Exist?.
