1.6. Educational level 7<br />

The educational level of a region is an essential indicator for the long-term economic<br />

development potential, since a positive development of existing companies and the creation and<br />

development of new enterprises strongly depend on the existing potential of qualified and<br />

professional workers.<br />

The most important indicator is the share of people who have only a compulsory school-leaving<br />

qualification as these people always have fewer chances in a highly qualified economy.<br />

Concerning this, the best situation can be found in the region Graz where only 14,87% of<br />

people at employment age have no further education. The worst situation is in South-East<br />

Styria, where there are 22,36% of the total population with no more than compulsory<br />

education. The South-West Styria is with a share of 19,65% in the lower third of the region<br />

Styria.<br />
