Abstract

Considering the obvious relationship between the education level of the population and level of development of the region of residence and its sustainable development was considered interesting to analyze whether the typology of the geographical regions influences the educational attainment level of the population. To highlight the association between geographical territory and educational attainment level of the population, the regions were classified into three different categories, respectively: predominantly urban, intermediate and predominantly rural by respect the Eurostat urban-rural typology, and the educational levels in three categories based on the ISCED 11 levels and categories, respectively less than primary, primary and lower secondary education,, upper secondary and post- secondary non-tertiary education, and tertiary education. The study aims to determine whether there is a significant relationship between the three categories of regions and the types of training, education predisposition to the resident population. In this sense, was appealed to Chi-Square test, a nonparametric test used to assess the association between two variables, both based on nominal scales, and specific measure of the degree of association. In the study were used centralized data at the national level referring to the population aged 25-64 by educational attainment level, and urban-rural typology, accessed from Eurostat database, for the year 2015, the latest year for which are available official data.
