Description
Description | The Higher Education - Improving Access Project aims to increase the equity, and improve the quality of Colombia's tertiary education system, and, to support a coherent, and efficient system by enhancing the legal, and technical framework, to consolidate the education quality assurance system. Through its components, it will improve equity in access to tertiary education a) by investments in student-aid (loans and grants), and, b) by introducing monitoring and evaluation criteria. The support to doctoral programs will improve the quality of post-graduate programs, and encourage youth to pursue advanced degrees. The institutional strengthening component will ensure a labor market monitoring program, to keep abreast of changing demands in labor markets, while institutional capacity will be built to formulate, and implement new policies. In addition, the higher education information management system (SNIES) will be improved, and strengthened to prod quality enhancement. Project management will support administrative, managerial, and financial project activities. |
