After constructing the aggregated indicators of quantity and quality of education, the relationship between these mentioned indicators on total factor productivity in the non-oil economy during the period 1986-1988 has been studied. For this purpose, after calculating the total factor productivity index via Solo the remaining method, the effect of quantity and quality of education indicators on total factor productivity has been analyzed. The results of implementing ARDL model while confirming the hypothesis of positive impact of human capital on TFP, showed that the quantity of education has a greater impact on TFP than the quality of education. The positive impact of R&D and production capacity utilization rate on TFP was also confirmed.
