No Gold Medal Here: U.S. is Lagging Behind Global Competitors in Commitment to Education, New Study Finds

Washington, D.C.–(ENEWSPF)–August 21, 2012.  In an era when the next generation will be expected to compete for jobs in a global economy, America’s commitment to education is waning while the growing economies of China and India are investing more than ever, according to a new report released today. The report, “The Competition that Really Matters: Comparing U.S., Chinese and Indian Investments in the Next Generation Workforce,” finds that while the United States won the medal count at the London Olympics, China, India, and several European countries are dramatically out-competing the United States when it comes to improving educational outcomes.  An infographic, also released today, provides a snapshot of the significant investment disparities between the U.S., China, and India.
