I wrote a piece for @TheAtlantic about the growing perception that college is no longer worth it.

It's important for people to know that the value of a BA increases with work experience, peaking at ages 45-55.

Tuition (and loans) must be repaid long before that. College seems like a bad deal initially and tuition is too high. Despite all that, it's often worth it in the long run.

Good morning #EconTwitter!

Do you want to learn how to code #econometrics and #statistics in 𝐏𝐇𝐘𝐓𝐎𝐍?

Then, you should check out these great resources by Kevin Sheppard (@OxfordEconomics)!

They include: a book, data, a full course and further stuff. Just AMAZING!

Desde el momento 0 tienen una ventana de al menos 3 años para solventar el tema del recaudo (desarrollo tecnológico, convenios y pilotaje de la herramienta). Ojalá sea la apuesta del presente para promover el acceso a Educación Superior.

Interesante @ICETEX! Nueva política para compartir el riesgo de la deuda entre universidades y estudiantes. Gran oportunidad para usar la nueva política de Financiación Contingente al Ingreso con 0% de interés real. @MauroToroO @agaviriau @Mineducacion 🧵📚 Algunos Comentarios 🔜

[Germán Pulido @GermanPulido_]

Conclusión
@ICETEX debe migrar a una política total de pagos contingente al ingreso. Aprovechar el riesgo compartido con las universidades y hacer una colocación masiva de FCIs en 2023-1. No más crédito de cuotas fijas.

#EconTwitter: what micro datasets on individuals/households are easily accessible for students to work with, e.g., for a Master Thesis? It's ok if they have to apply/register, but they are not typically employed at our chair, nor can we cover costs for data access. #followerpower

🔜 Ed Sup: Alta empleabilidad de los graduados. Al año siguiente al grado, 8/10 se encuentran laborando en el sector formal. Reto grande ⬆️ la tasa de tránsito a superior (40%) y reto gigantesco ⬆️ la población joven con Ed Sup en 🇨🇴 (~30%) Necesitamos + Acceso con Graduación!

Gran iniciativa del @ICFEScol y @Mineducacion: Observatorio de Trayectorias Educativas. Recurso vital para la política educativa del país: Transito entre niveles educativos, repitencia, deserción, logro educativo, empleabilidad… https://t.co/BXny2YlDrN #SeminarioICFES
