As economies in developed countries shift away from manufacturing industries, economic success for individuals and national economies is increasingly reliant on the quality of human capital. This publication, 'Human Capital: How What You Know Shapes Your Life', the first in a new series, examines the increasing socio-economic importance of human capital, with the key determinant relating to an individual's educational attainment, training, skills and competencies. It considers how different countries across the OECD are responding to the challenge of raising their levels of human capital, including where countries are failing or succeeding in providing education and training opportunities to support individuals throughout their lives.
