Education Committee

The OECD's work on education helps improve educational quality and accessibility on a global scale. The OECD conducts research, collects data, and allows countries to benchmark their performance and learn from one another including on cutting edge issues including digital and AI impacts on education, training and skills needs. As the flagship Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) can trigger national education policy reform, dialogue between governments and business at the OECD is instrumental to ensure that recommendations for education policies reflect labour market realities and foster a capable and adaptable workforce.
