  Economists’ musings on human capital investment
  How efficient is public spending on education in EU Member States?

  In this paper we perform stochastic frontier analyses to assess the quality of public spending on education in Europe. To measure the corresponding efficiency, three dimensions are taken into account: (1) quantity (tertiary educational attainment), (2) quality (PISA scores in the area of science), and (3) inclusiveness (proxied by the inverse of young people not in employment, training or education (NEET rates)). All EU Member States are covered over the period 2002 – 2015. Based on pooled and fixed effects regressions, the EU Member States' efficiency scores are assessed both with a view at an EU-wide frontier to allow for cross-country comparisons as well as concerning country-specific frontiers to identify individual trends and possibly remaining deficiencies. The results reveal that some Member States manage to achieve high efficiency in all observed output dimensions 'quantity', 'quality' and 'inclusion', such as e.g. the Netherlands and the United Kingdom - which implies that there is not necessarily a trade-off between the individual output dimensions. Evidence suggests, moreover, that most Member States made remarkable progress over time in terms of efficient use of public resources in reaching large numbers of highly educated young adults. With a view at quality and inclusiveness of public spending on education, however, in many Member States seems to remain still room (and need) for further improvements.

  Learning mobility II
  An estimation of the benchmark

  Within the strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training (ET 2020), a EU benchmark was set in 2011 envisaging that ‘by 2020, an EU average of at least 20 % of higher education graduates should have had a period of higher education-related study or training (including wor...

  Within the strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training (ET 2020), a EU benchmark was set in 2011 envisaging that ‘by 2020, an EU average of at least 20 % of higher education graduates should have had a period of higher education-related study or training (including work placements) abroad, representing a minimum of 15 ECTS credits or lasting a minimum of three months’. This report provides the first estimates of this benchmark and of its degree and credit mobility components, for the EU as a whole and for each Member State, using the newly available data from the UNESCO, OECD and Eurostat data collection referring to the academic year 2015/2016.
