Hi, I'm translating a diploma bestowed by a person who has the following abbreviations before his name:
SOC FOC Jose A Echeverría
I did research his name which yielded no useful results.
I'd appreciate your feedback.

"El subsistema de Educación de Adultos actual en Cuba lo integran tres niveles educativos: Educación Obrera y Campesina (EOC), Secundaria Obrera y Campesina (SOC), Facultad Obrera y Campesina (FOC), en curso regular y por encuentro, además se da atención a las instalaciones penitenciarias a partir de convenio MINED - MININT y la enseñanza de idiomas extranjeros."

I would tend to disregard this as I do with other titles such as Lic., Ing., etc.
If you don't agree with this idea, perhaps mention it in brackets after the name?

On second thoughts, I think this is probably the name of a school/college!

Hi Emily. I just wanted to add that José Antonio Echeverría is actually the name of the school, taking after a Cuban revolutionary.

Anytime. Just to share a little trivia: I think there isn't a single school in Cuba which hasn't been named after a martyr, a hero or something relating to the Cuban Revolution.
