Education and Skills: An Assessment of Recent Canadian Experience
Overview Education and skill formation have become prominent concerns of both economic and social policy in Canada. This paper examines recent Canadian experience and compares this experience to that in other G-7 and OECD countries. Several dimensions of educational inputs and outcomes are discussed: expenditures on education, educational attainment, student achievement, and the literacy and numeracy skills of the adult population. The paper also examines the incidence of education in the population and the economic returns to education.
