In the UK, yes (mostly). In our system, we’ve got further education (sixth form or college) which sits between high school and higher education (university). As well as providing A-level courses, colleges often provide more vocational courses that don’t necessarily lead into higher education. For example, my local college has hairdressing and bricklaying courses.
Confusingly, some universities are also made up of colleges. I think this is a minority of universities, though, and anecdotally, seems to be the older ones (Oxford, Cambridge, etc)
