Abstract: As a starting point for this study, I focused on social and education policy changes in higher education. We set out to interpret these processes and trace the historical changes in the emergence and development of semi-tertiary education in international. Overall, the study examines the effects (expansion, diversification) which led to the structural and institutional transformation of higher education, including how these effects materialised internationally and in some European countries. The findings indicate that, both internationally and in Hungary, short-cycle higher education can be seen as a special area of the higher education system. In the mid-1990s, French and English examples provided inspiration to the creators of Hungarian post-secondary vocational training, which led to the launch of this form of training in 1998, on the borderline between secondary vocational training and higher education.
