Sažetak

Quality organization of the education system is a growing factor in achieving continuous economic progress. Therefore it is important to measure quality of education through a number of indicators of effectiveness. One of the indicators of quality of higher education is also to monitor changes in the number of enrolled and graduated students at higher education institutions that clearly shows whether the number of students who enroll and complete their studies increases or decreases. In a last few years Croatia is investing in increasing quality of higher education, partly through implementation of Bologna process, and partly through internal analysis of institutions of higher education. Investing in quality resulted with positive completion rate but despite that, Croatia is still behind Europe according to the share of highly educated. Efficiency analysis of higher education shows that Croatia is continuously increasing its share of highly educated but in order to reach the average of European Union, further efforts in improving educational image still represent a necessity.
