According to the model, among the most important factors are: the number of students enrolled in the programs in initialvocational education per 10 000 population, the expenses of consolidated budgets of subjects of the Russian Federation for education, life expectancy, library stock per 1000 population, the total living area per 1 inhabitant, the expenses of consolidated budgets of subjects of the Russian Federation for social policy.
