Students' vocational abilities and skills and the fulfilment of conditions to obtain credits in accordance with the relevant education programme are established through verification and assessment. Assessment of students also takes into account non-formally acquired knowledge, which must be adequately demonstrated. Students are assessed using scores from 5 (excellent) to 1 (inadequate).

Students may progress to the next year if at the end of the academic year they achieve a passing grade in all general education subjects and technical modules from the school's operational curriculum for the year and have completed all extracurricular activities and all work placement requirements. Progression is also possible by decision of the programme teaching staff.

Matura/vocational course, higher vocational education (SQF level 6), professional higher education (SQF level 7) and academic higher education (SQF level 7)

Students must successfully (i.e. with passing grades) complete general education subjects, compulsory and elective technical modules, and the open part of the curriculum. They must also complete extracurricular activities and on-the-job training and pass the vocational matura examination.

A vocational matura comprises a compulsory section (written and oral examination in Slovene, written and oral examination in electronic communications) and an elective section (written and oral foreign language or mathematics examination, and a product/service and an oral presentation).
