  • A Review of the Wage Returns to Private Sector Training1
    A review of the wage returns to private sector training1 Edwin Leuven Universiteit van Amsterdam and CREST-INSEE 1This paper was prepared for the joint EC-OECD Seminar on Human Capital and Labour Market Performance, held in Brussels on Dec 8, 2004. The opinions expressed do not necessarily reflect those of the EC, OECD, or of their member countries. This paper was funded by the EC and commissioned by the OECD. Contents 1 Introduction 1 2 Theoretical insights 2 3 Measurement of training 3 4 Estimation issues 5 4.1 Evaluation framework . 5 4.2 OLS and FE implementations . 6 4.3 IV and parametric selection models . 8 5 Overview of the literature 9 5.1 Returns to tenure (indirect training measures) . 9 5.2 Direct training measures . 9 5.2.1 United States & Canada . 9 5.2.2 UK . 12 5.2.3 Other countries . 15 5.3 High returns? . 17 6 Discussion and conclusion 18 References 19 1 Abstract This paper provides a tentative review of the literature that estimates wage re- turns to training. It discusses both the measurement and estimation issues. The fundamental problem concerning the recovery of the causal effect of training on earnings lies in the correction for selectivity into training. The discussion of the empirical literature emphasises the size of the estimated returns; something which has been largely neglected in the literature. It is argued that traditional studies that depend on differencing (fixed effect) methods where non-participants are used as a comparison group results in high return estimates. On the basis of these high returns some have argued that there is substantial un- derinvestment and therefore scope for public intervention.
