Yes.

Sorry, this was not clearly formulated in the text I wrote above: A user (i.e. the person entering data) may be missing rows that the DBA has not entered. For example she would like to specify that she has a "high school diploma", but this type of certificate is missing from PERSON_CERTIFICATE_TYPES. BTW, someone finally answered to my identical question in comp.databases and in the thread you can find three possible solutions to the problem.
