Hey, just out of curiosity and for maybe some future planning. Does anyone know which country boasts the highest percentage of folks with a college education?
Canada currently holds the first place for the country with the highest number of individuals who have completed tertiary education, according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). About 60% of adults between 25-64 years old have completed some kind of tertiary education, which includes both undergraduate and graduate degrees. Following closely behind are Japan, Israel, and South Korea. However, keep in mind this data might fluctuate a bit yearly, but in recent years, these countries have consistently ranked high in this particular metric.
