Nüüd aga on tarvis hakata ellu rakendama uut jutud endisi tippjuhte. RÕÕMUSTAB Eesti hinnad liginevad Euroopale. Kallis kaup ei meeldi tarbijale, kuid seda enam meeldib müüjale, ettevõtjale. Üldjoontes kehtib reegel – mida rikkam ühiskond, seda kõrgemad hinnad. Seetõttu on Eesti Euroopa keskmisele liginev hinnatase hea märk. Kütuse hind alaneb. Pea viimased kolm kuud alanenud kü- tusehinnad võivad osa maailma suurte kütusetarbijate hin- nangul veel edasi kukkuda. Eile tuli järjekordne hinnalan- gu ka Eesti tanklakettides. Igal juhul on oodata, et kui tava- liselt kergitavad kütusemüüjad puhkuste perioodiks jaehin- du, siis sel aastal seda suure tõenäosusega ei tule. Veel üks saja-aastane firma Eestis. Vaatamata käärimise- le aktsionäride seas on Baltimaade suurim tööstusettevõte BLRT nüüd 100aastane. Eestis pole just palju nii vanu tegut- sevaid ettevõtteid. Räpina paberivabrik, Leibur, Kalev, Saku õlletehas ja ehk mõned veel. Midagi nagu vist Brüsselis otsustatakse.

This has even become part of local folklore. Yet the conclusion drawn by many Estonians, including several prominent gures, that the Presi- dent is looking for one single product like Pippi Longstocking once looked for Spunk - is somewhat unexpected. As a matter of fact, the President of Estonia is not supposed to seek Estonia’s Nokia. I am seeking it for you. For those who are too lazy to do it themselves. However, it is every Estonian proprietor’s task to look for their own so-called Nokias, and nd at least six of them annually. The key factor to innovation is man. I have used this example of Nokia to draw attention to the product that Estonia does not make in large quantities - this is world-class labour force. A study loan taken with the intention to get proper education and training would consti- tute a safe investment in any case, for the borrowers will, sooner or later, rise to such high and well-paid positions that returning the loan is as easy as anything. Having adopted Western-type business culture and well functioning marketing mechanisms, it is now primarily in the eld of intellectual property that Estonia, in order to survive in the third round, needs to be able to create surplus value.

The first edition was compiled in collaboration with the Estonian Ministry of Education in 1998, the second and the third (revised) edition appeared in 2001 and 2004 respectively. This edition has been considerably revised and updated to reflect the many changes that have taken place in the course of higher education reforms in general, and in the systems of higher education cycles and qualifications in particular, including the changes in the quality assess- ment procedures. The publication is an information tool for all those concerned with higher education in its international context. It contains information about the Estonian higher education system and the higher education institutions, meant primarily for use by credential evaluation and recognition bodies, such as recognition information centres, higher education institutions and employers. This information is necessary for a better understanding of Estonian qualifications and for their fair recognition in foreign countries. Taking into account the fact that credential evaluators and competent recogni- tion authorities in other countries will come across qualifications of the former systems, this book describes not only the current higher educa- tion system and the corresponding qualifications, but also the qualifica- tions of the former systems beginning with the Soviet period.
