The main purpose of the OECD's 'Thematic review of tertiary education' is to provide policy makers with information and analysis to assist them in formulating and implementing policies to achieve national social and economic objectives through tertiary education. Its key objectives are to: synthesise research-based evidence on the impact of tertiary education policies and disseminate this knowledge among participating countries; identify innovative and successful policy initiatives and practices; facilitate exchanges of lessons and experiences among countries; and identify future policy options. The review, which involved 24 countries (Australia, Belgium - Flemish Community, Chile, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Iceland, Japan, Mexico, Korea, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russian Federation, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom), 'examines how the organisation, management and delivery of tertiary education can help countries achieve their economic and social objectives'. As part of the review, each of the participating countries was asked to prepare a country background report. Fourteen of the participating countries also chose to participate in a country review in which the country background report is analysed by a team of reviewers. The reviewers then undertake an intensive case study visit of the country and prepare a 'country note' reflecting on specific issues and policies relating to the tertiary education policy of the country concerned from an international perspective. This document is the country note for the Czech Republic. Its contents are: Introduction; The context and background of tertiary education policy in the Czech Republic; System structure and the institutional landscape; System and institutional governance; Resourcing tertiary education; Access and equity; Labour markets and tertiary education in the Czech Republic; Research and innovation; Quality assurance and quality enhancement; The international dimension; Conclusion.
