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.

Conference on “Governing Bodies of Higher Education Institutions: Roles and Responsibilities", 24 and 25 August 2006 at the OECD Headquarters in Paris
02-Aug-2006
This seminar organised by IMHE focuses on Governing boards and institutional leaders. The roles of higher education institutions are changing and in many countries their relation to central government is also evolving. Institutions are becoming more responsible for the development of their own strategies and for the management of their operations. Accountability, evaluation and corporate responsibility are now part of a process, which – to some extent at least – draws on models found in the private sector. For more information or to register
