In 2023, Guatemala led Latin America with 86.28% of men in the labor force having intermediate education, closely followed by Bolivia. Notable increases were observed in Bolivia and El Salvador, with a dip noted in Chile, which saw a substantial reduction of 0.9% year-on-year. Most countries saw stagnation or minor declines, with Brazil, Honduras, Colombia, and Panama facing the most significant declines.
Future trends to monitor include potential educational reforms or economic shifts that might influence these percentages. Additionally, the alignment of intermediate education curriculum with market demands could further stabilize or enhance these figures in the coming years.
