Numbers 1-8 are more detailed and refer approximately to finished training and education levels:

• 1 = No or very basic knowledge /// Level of primary education
• 2 = Some basic skills /// E.g. after having taken a short introductory course
• 3 = Good general idea but without specific higher knowledge /// Generally equivalent to the level of finished secondary education (12 years school)
• 4 = Specialized knowledge and skills in the topic
• 5 = High specialized knowledge /// Full vocational education or equivalent degree
• 6 = Professional knowledge /// Polytechnic or higher vocational education
• 7 = High professional knowledge /// University master level
• 8 = The highest professional knowledge /// University PhD or higher

Depending on the skill, you should understand the level according to your own experience and knowledge, even if you do not have a formal degree of the indicated level. This is especially valid for many of the digital and social skills, where formal education is often not available or cannot be accredited.
