In Collaboration with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, the OECD report provides an important outsider's perspective, on challenges to America's global standing in postsecondary education outcomes and what lawmakers could and should do to address them. 

The report recommends building on the unique strengths of the American postsecondary system and also makes clear that until decades-old problems of quality, coherence, and transparency are addressed, the United States will not continue to lead the world in postsecondary outcomes.
