In this article, we are motivated by the educational demand which is low in Haut-Katanga in view of mixed financing. Thus, the educational market in this province reveals an imbalance linked to the financing of the educational supply and demand in deficit. Therefore, this request is grouped into five categories according to geographical areas and study costs in terms of costs. Several actors finance the demand and the supply which in turn is grouped into four categories in view of the cost of physical and material investments. These are the State, households, learners in the dynamics of educational financing of households, partners, and businesses. Several reasons are mentioned in this article among which economically, we have the centralized coordination of the educational market and the low income of households which justifies the low demand for education. Moreover, these reasons do not encourage households to send their children to school. In other words, the educational cost and benefits (benefits) are at odds with the labor market for the majority of learners. This is justified by the obsolescence of certain courses organized on the educational market at the secondary level. As a result, these streams do not keep up with the changing economic and technological environment that should benefit learners, their families and the province in the future. Thus, the educational market shows the remarkable deficit in terms of financial resources, infrastructure, accessibility and future economic and technological advantages of learners in the province of Haut-Katanga because the objective that the State is assigned is not reached.

Abstract
In this article, we are motivated by the educational demand which is low in Haut-Katanga in view of mixed financing. Thus, the educational market in this province reveals an imbalance linked to the financing of the educational supply and demand in deficit. Therefore, this request is grouped into five categories according to geographical areas and study costs in terms of costs. Several actors finance the demand and the supply which in turn is grouped into four categories in view of the cost of physical and material investments. These are the State, households, learners in the dynamics of educational financing of households, partners, and businesses. Several reasons are mentioned in this article among which economically, we have the centralized coordination of the educational market and the low income of households which justifies the low demand for education. Moreover, these reasons do not encourage households to send their children to school. In other words, the educational cost and benefits (benefits) are at odds with the labor market for the majority of learners. This is justified by the obsolescence of certain courses organized on the educational market at the secondary level. As a result, these streams do not keep up with the changing economic and technological environment that should benefit learners, their families and the province in the future. Thus, the educational market shows the remarkable deficit in terms of financial resources, infrastructure, accessibility and future economic and technological advantages of learners in the province of Haut-Katanga because the objective that the State is assigned is not reached.

Abstract: (french)
Dans cet article, nous sommes motivés par la demande éducative qui s’avère faible dans le Haut-Katanga au vue du financement mixte. Ainsi, le marché éducatif dans cette province dégage un déséquilibre lié au financement de l’offre et de la demande éducative déficitaire. Par conséquent, cette demande se regroupe en cinq catégorie selon les zones géographiques et frais d’études en termes de coûts. Plusieurs acteurs financent la demande et l’offre qui à son tours se regroupe en quatre catégorie au vue de coûts des investissements physiques et matériels. Il s’agit de l’Etat, des ménages, des apprenants dans la dynamique de financement éducatif des ménages, des partenaires, et des entreprises. Plusieurs raisons sont évoquées dans cet article parmi lesquelles économiquement, nous avons la coordination centralisée du marché éducatif et le faible revenu de ménages qui justifie la faible demande éducative. Par ailleurs, ces raisons n’incitent pas les ménages à scolariser leurs enfants. En d’autres termes, le coût éducatif et les avantages (bénéfices) sont en contradiction avec le marché de l’emploi pour la majorité des apprenants. Ceci se justifie par l’obsolescence des certaines filières organisées sur le marché éducatif au niveau secondaire. Par conséquent, ces filières ne suivent pas l’évolution de l’environnement économique et technologique qui doivent être à l’avantage des apprenants, de leurs familles et de la province dans l’avenir. Ainsi donc, le marché éducatif dégage le déficit remarquable en termes des ressources financières, d’infrastructures, d’accessibilité et des avantages économiques et technologiques futurs des apprenants de la province du Haut-Katanga du fait que l’objectif que l’Etat s’est assigné n’est pas atteint.
