🎓 Dentistry Had the Highest Tuition Fees in Canada

In 2024/25, Canadian undergraduate tuition fees showed stark contrasts, with dentistry and medicine among the most expensive, while education remained the lowest. To improve affordability, the government increased Canada Student Grants and interest-free loans. Targeted programs, including CAD 242.7M over 3 years for undergraduate students, aim to reduce barriers. A cohesive national strategy is needed to balance affordability and quality.

🍃 40% of Indonesian Energy Analysts Lack Green Experience

In Indonesia in 2022, energy analysts and agronomists had the highest share of hires without prior green experience, with 40% and 35% respectively, while sustainability managers required more expertise, with 22%. Indonesia’s Green Economy Program, JETP, and Green Jobs Roadmap support workforce upskilling, aligning with the goal of creating 9M green jobs by 2030. Specialized training and certifications remain key for sustainability management roles.

🏥 >60K NHS Scotland Staff in Nursing Midwifery

Between 2013 and 2023, NHS Scotland expanded across all staff categories, with medical and dental staff rising to 15K and nursing and midwifery to 65K. Growth was driven by Scotland’s National Workforce Strategy, NHS Education for Scotland, and healthcare recruitment programs. Administrative roles increased as clinical support staff numbers fell after 2021. This reflected a focus on improving efficiency and workforce sustainability through initiatives targeting training, retention, and career development.
