Global value - The value of UK education and training exports: an update (877KB) - published September 2007

This study, by Dr Pamela Lenton of the University of Sheffield, estimates the total value of UK education and training exports, including not only the income from education fees and expenditures, but also exports of consultancy services (which are essentially exports of human capital, or expertise) and various goods, such as published works or educational equipment. Wherever possible, it also provides a breakdown of the total UK education and training exports figures into the export income attributable to each respective government region.

This is an update of a 2004 report by Professor Geraint Johnes of Lancaster University Management School.
