Abstract: The investments in education are, or should be, a priority in the developed countries as well as in the developing ones. Priority comes from the contribution of this sector to the economic growth of those countries and the positivism of these ideas results from the coherent strategies regarding the economic growth over medium and long term. For this purpose Europe has proposed through Lisbon Strategy to be an economy/society based on knowledge in its development (in the sense that the economy sectors derive profit from knowledge produced by educational services). Thus the social development is based on increasing knowledge, the number of innovations/inventions, their quick adjustment and widely dissemination. This aspect leads to the obligatory presence of global competition, creativity and talent of the employees from any organization; employees’ creativity and skills are directly dependent on education. We talk about the employees’ adaptation to the new demands of the technology through their continuous training and improvement, situation that if it was accomplished would increase the GDP / capita or the GNI / capita. The need for these things is evident from the statements of some policy makers who issued the idea that education is the strategic factor of the national development in the future, that it has an essential contribution to the formation of the human capital.
