In Sitra’s online service, the indicators of education level and vitality can be viewed both by municipality and by county and region. In the survey, the educational profile of each province consists of the educational structure of the region, the level of education of the population and the ability to employ graduates from the province and attract experts from other provinces to their region. Leading expert Timo Aro presents five summarising statements: Regional differences in education are large and have remained between regions. Vocational secondary school graduates are “home-loyal” which is a critical factor in the labour needs of the regions. Placement in the labour market is proportional to the level of education. Uusimaa benefits significantly from the brain drain of educated and skilled people from the rest of the country. Regional equality in education is not fully achieved at all levels of education SITRA julkaisi tänään selvityksemme ‘Miten osaajat liikkuvat alueilla?’.
