Educational Attainment and Participation in Training

Résumé du livre

This paper examines the relationship between prior educational attainment and participation in formal and on the job training in Australia. The evidence suggests that the incidence of participation in formal training courses by those with the highest levels of educational attainment was substantially greater than for those with no post school qualifications. It would seem that the uneven distribution of educational qualifications among employees in Australia is mirrored in the distribution of training activities.
