The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has released the 2011 edition of its annual publication Education at a Glance. The full text of the report can be accessed online here. As in previous years, the Canadian Education Statistics Council has also released a companion report, Education Indicators in Canada: An International Perspective 2011.
The educational attainment data in the OECD report are similar to those reported last year. Canada leads the OECD in terms of educational attainment amongst working age adults, with 49% of the Canadian population aged 25-64 having attained a college or university (i.e., tertiary) education. On average across OECD countries, 30% of adults have a tertiary qualification.
