Incentives for Better Quality Higher Education in Egypt and Jordan

FromDec 12, 2013 To Dec 12, 2013

CAIRO, EGYPT

Building on ERF’s previous work on financing higher education and in continuation of its partnership with the Ford Foundation, ERF organized a workshop on Incentives for Better Quality Higher Education in Egypt and Jordan. The  objective of the workshop was to share and discuss the findings of a number of research studies that were carried out based on surveys tracking graduates from the business and information technology schools into the labor market in both Egypt and Jordan. The papers attempted to explain variations in the performance of the graduates in the labor market in light of information about the institutional framework governing higher education in different types of  higher education institutions in both countries.
