Is tertiary education meeting today’s job demands?

As the world of work evolves, the promises of higher education is under increasing pressure. Rising costs, shifting labour markets and growing questions about the return on investment are forcing students, institutions and policymakers to reassess the value of a university degree. Ahead of the 9 September launch of this year’s Education at a Glance, the world’s most comprehensive source of international education data, this webinar will explore whether we think higher education is keeping pace with the needs of today’s economies and the expectations of tomorrow’s learners.

Speakers include:

• Simon Roy, Head of Higher Education Policy, Directorate for Education and Skills.
• Rosie Hood, Lead Data Scientist for EMEA in LinkedIn’s Economic Graph Research Institute
• Professor James Robson, Associate Professor of Tertiary Education Systems and Director of the Centre for Skills, Knowledge, and Organisational Performance (SKOPE), the University of Oxford
