Youth in Mexico are immersed in a scenario of employment, education and technology far removed from their peers in other OECD countries. In terms of education, enrolment is highest in the State of Mexico, followed by the Federal District, in relation to the number of young people. It can be seen that the upper secondary level is higher than the other levels. This implies that the degree of qualification is low, but it opens the opportunity for training which has been identified as a determinant of the quality of working life.
