Abstract
The article presents the results of a study on educational migration management policies in the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). The main task was to systematize the state policy measures of the countries of the region in this area and classify countries into groups of exporters and importers of educational services, as well as countries with a neutral policy in the field of regulating educational migration. The paper analyzed four groups of tasks set by countries that attract educational migrants, and identified one additional, comprehensive goal for the development of national higher education systems. In accordance with the level of development and their political priorities, the LAC countries are also evaluated in terms of the compliance of the applied measures with the initial tasks that they set for the policy in the field of educational migration. The article substantiates the approach to the policy of stimulating educational emigration from developing countries as an import of educational services and draws conclusions about the feasibility of developing systems for evaluating the effectiveness of expenditures on the implementation of state policy in the field of educational migration management.
