The shape of things to come 2: The evolution of transnational education

Going Global 2013 sees the launch of new research from the British Council entitled ‘The shape of things to come 2: The evolution of transnational education’ – a piece of work which maps the evolution of transnational education (TNE) globally, with a particular focus on the impact on host countries, and how its provision has supported national education agendas over time.
The research provides answers to the following questions:

• How has TNE evolved globally?
• What has been the impact of TNE on the host countries?
• What are the fundamental drivers for aspiring education hub countries?
• Which models of TNE are best fitted to particular environments?

Through conducting this research, the British Council have created:

• An Opportunities Matrix: Detailed regulatory and market environment analysis of 25 countries
• Case Studies – detailing the evolution of TNE in 3 major host countries
