Education is the path to sustainable evolution and acceleration of the catching up process in emerging economies. Without education there is no technological breakthrough, no increase in the created added value and also no improvement in the overall quality of life of a nation’s inhabitants.

The main method of research used was documentary analysis that used both primary data from the literature, especially articles from journals indexed in international databases and from secondary data. The findings allowed us to draw conclusions on the expected course of action for education in the next period as well as the elements that can be included in the educational strategy. The pressure of globalization requires changes both economically, socially, politically and culturally and educationally. Changes are often accompanied by risks. Their debates have made it possible to identify future actions. The pressure of globalization requires changes both economically, socially, politically and culturally and educationally.
