本文评估了以市场为基础的方法在提供公共赞助的培训计划方面的有效性。特别是，我们通过一个针对弱势青年的秘鲁项目，研究了培训质量和劳动收入之间的联系。培训质量的多个代理从招标过程中确定，在招标过程中，以盈利为目的的公共和私营培训机构竞争有限的公共资金。使用差异核匹配和基于标准回归的方法，我们发现参加高质量培训课程的受益者具有更高的平均和边际待遇影响。这些收入差距对女性来说比男性更大，中期内也比短期内更大。外部效度是通过在八年时间里使用五个不同的个人队列来评估的。
This paper evaluates the effectiveness of market-based approaches in the provision of public-sponsored training programs. In particular, we study the link between training quality and labor earnings using a Peruvian program that targets disadvantaged youths. Multiple proxies for training quality are identified from bidding processes in which public and private training institutions that operate for profit compete for limited public funding. Using difference-in-differences kernel matching and standard regression-based approaches, we find that beneficiaries attending high-quality training courses have higher average and marginal treatment impacts. These earnings differentials are larger for females rather than males, and are larger in the medium term rather than in the short run. External validity was assessed by using five different cohorts of individuals over an eight-year period.
