Education Indicators in Canada: An International Perspective was designed to expand upon the information for Canada that is provided to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) for publication in Education at a Glance: OECD Indicators (EAG). The additional, internationally comparable data provided by Education Indicators in Canada complement EAG and support the mission of the Canadian Education Statistics Council (CESC) to “create and commit to comprehensive and long-term strategies, plans, and programs to collect, analyze, and disseminate nationally and internationally policy-relevant and comparable statistical information.” Twelve indicators are included in Education Indicators in Canada: An International Perspective. The first eleven present information on: educational attainment (Indicator A1); on-time and extended high school graduation rates (A2); international students (A3); transitions to the labour market (A4); labour market outcomes (A5); the financial resources invested in education (B1, B2 and B3); and the organization of learning environments at the elementary and secondary levels (C1, C2 and C3). The 12th indicator (D) adds a selection of topics related to Goal 4 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) on inclusive and equitable education.
