abstract: 'Job skills training is a cost-effective strategy for improving
employment among individuals who have low income and employment
barriers, but few U.S. government-sponsored employment program
participants have received such training. To better understand long-term
gains from job skills training, this study compared employment and
earnings trajectories between program participants who received job
skills training and those who received basic services only. Using data
from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979, we estimated
33-year employment and earnings trajectories among U.S. baby-boomer
cohorts while accounting for baseline group heterogeneity using inverse
propensity score weighting. We found increases in employment rates over
the life course, especially among Black women. Job skills training also
increased earnings by up to 69.6 \% compared to basic services only.
Despite the long-term gains in employment and earnings, job skills
training participation is not sufficient to address gender as well as
racial and ethnic gaps in full-time employment. Findings reinforce the
importance of incorporating job skills training as an essential service
element of government-sponsored employment programs to improve long-term
labor market outcomes among Americans with economic disadvantages.'
