Tertiary education in Chile is ready for a second generation of reforms
03-Apr-2009
Education has been a consistent priority of Chile since the early 1990s. The government’s firm commitment to access and equity has led to ever-increasing numbers of young people entering tertiary education, posing challenges for both its financing and quality. A new joint OECD and World Bank review of tertiary education finds that the government has responded admirably to these challenges, creating a dynamic and responsive system. But as Chile accedes to full membership in the OECD and enrolment continues to grow, reforms in key areas are now needed.
