elusive equity

Mexico (2005)

only 1% of 15-24 year old from poorest quintile attend tertiary education

32% from richest quintile

USA: probability to access Ivy

League university is 8.3% for lowest quintile 50% for richest quintile

France: probability to access Grande

new challenges

shrinking student population

education and training needs

cost of ICT

increased competition

client needs

knowledge-driven economic growth (and aging population) requires higher labor productivity, which means in turn

increased demand for skilled workers

changing education and training needs

(methodological skills and updating of

knowledge)

more diverse clients (lifelong learning
