IN GREAT BRITAIN, outside the universities, there is a great variety of higher education, provided mainly by local education authorities in technical, commercial, and art colleges. These colleges offer courses leading to a wide range of qualifications ranging from external university degrees and the highest technological awards to craftsmen's certificates. In the year 1962-63 there were about one hundred fifty-eight thousand full-time students and about one and one-half million parttime students at technical and commercial colleges. Nearly a million other students attended evening institutes. The great and continuing expansion of technical education springs from the White Paper of 19561 which resulted in a building program in 1956-1961 of nearly £100 million. Colleges are organized in four broad groups:
