Opis

'Tertiary Education in Colombia: Paving the Way for Reform' discusses the ways in which Colombia could address the main issues confronting its tertiary education system. The first section of the education sector work details the current tertiary system in Colombia. The second section offers an economic perspective and argues that the country faces two main obstacles to expansion: rationed number of available places and stifled demand in private higher education. The third and final section contains strategies and policy recommendations which would enable Colombia's tertiary sector to respond to the needs of the country with increased equitable access to more relevant education of good quality. The last two sections focus upon four core issues: (i) ensuring clear and progressive governance (ii) inducing and assuring quality (iii) promoting strategic levels of education and fields of study, and (iv) providing finance for equitable and expanded access.
