How this figure is calculated
Teachers in tertiary education programmes, both sexes (number) divided by GDP (current US$), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Teachers in tertiary education programmes, both sexes (number) ÷ GDP (current US$)
Computed from
- Teachers in tertiary education programmes, both sexes UNESCO Institute for Statistics
- GDP Country official statistics, National Statistical Organizations and/or Central Banks
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
