Description
Summary:Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) (2018). OECD Factbook 2014: Economic, Environmental and Social Statistics: Education - Education Attainment | Country: Iceland | Socioeconomic Indicator: Population with Tertiary Education, Ages 25-64, 2000-2011. Data-Planet™ Statistical Ready Reference by Conquest Systems, Inc. [Data-file]. Dataset-ID: 062-001-001. Dataset: RReports the percentage of all persons in an age group that have achieved the specified level of education. Tertiary education includes both tertiary-type A programs, which are largely theoretically based and designed to provide qualifications for entry to advanced research programs and professions with high skill requirements; and tertiary-type B programs, which are more occupationally oriented and lead to direct labor market access. Upper secondary education typically follows completion of lower secondary schooling. Lower secondary education completes provision of basic education, usually in a more subject-oriented way and with more specialized teachers. This dataset provides indicators included in the OECD Factbook 2014: Economic, Environmental, and Social Statistics, updated annually by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Indicators, reported in 12 broad subject areas, cover a wide range of topics: agriculture, economic production, education, energy, environment, foreign aid, health, industry, information and communications, international trade, labor force, population, taxation, public expenditure, and research and development. Data are provided for all OECD member countries and Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Russia, and South Africa, where available. NOTE: The data presented here are copyrighted by OECD and reproduction is subject to OECD permissions policies: See http://www.oecd.org/rights for further information. Indicator descriptions are based on the OECD Factbook 2014. Throughout the dataset, unless otherwise specified, the following conventions apply: (1) OECD Total refers to all the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries listed in the table or chart; (2) OECD Average refers to the unweighted, arithmetic average of the listed countries; (3) the average values reported takes into account only those years for which data are available; and (4) “xxxx or latest available year” means that data for later years are not taken into account. OECD data sources vary across indicators: See the OECD Factbook 2014: Economic, Environmental, and Social Statistics ©OECD, available at http://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/economics/oecd-factbook-2014_factbook-2014-en for detail. Data values for some indicators have been updated and/or revised, as compared to the published OECD Factbook, which is a static document. Also note that the graph series published in the OECD Factbook are not replicated here: they are derived from the time series data. The International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED-97) is used to define the levels of education in a comparable way across countries. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, OECD Handbook for Internationally Comparative Education Statistics (2004) describes ISCED-97 education programs and attainment levels and their mappings for each country. Category: Education, International Relations and Trade Source: Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Established in 1961, when 18 European countries plus the United States and Canada joined together to create an organization dedicated to global development, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) today includes 34 member countries from around the globe, ranging from North and South America to Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. Member countries include many of the world’s advanced countries as well as emerging nations. The OECD mission remains the promotion of policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world. The OECD collects and analyzes data on a broad range of topics to help governments foster prosperity and fight poverty through economic growth and financial stability, at the same time taking the environmental implications of economic and social development into account. The OECD Secretariat collects and analyzes data, after which committees discuss policy regarding this information, the Council makes decisions, and then governments implement recommendations. The performance of individual countries is monitored following implementation via a system of multilateral surveillance and a peer review process. The OECD is headquartered in Paris, France, and it is funded by its member countries. National contributions are based on a formula that takes account of the size of each member's economy. The largest contributor is the United States, which provides nearly 24% of the budget, followed by Japan. http://www.oecd.org/ Subject: Educational Attainment, Secondary Education, Adults, Age Groups
