Evaluating continuous training programs using the generalized propensity score1
Kluve, Jochen; Schneider, Hilmar; Uhlendorff, Arne; … - 2007
This paper assesses the dynamics of treatment effects arising from variation in the duration of training. We use German administrative data that have the extraordinary feature that the amount of treatment varies continuously from 10 days to 395 days (i.e. 13 months). This feature allows us to...

Too bad to benefit? Effect heterogeneity of public training programs
Rinne, Ulf; Schneider, Marc; Uhlendorff, Arne - 2007
This study analyzes the treatment effects of public training programs for the unemployed in Germany. Based on propensity score matching methods we extend the picture that has been sketched in previous studies by estimating treatment effects of medium-term programs for different sub-groups with...

Endogenous exit bias in training programs for unemployed workers
Kluve, Jochen; Rinne, Ulf; Uhlendorff, Arne; Zhao, Zhong - 2012
This paper assesses the importance of reverse causality when evaluating the impact of training duration for unemployed workers. We use planned duration as an instrumental variable for actual duration. Our results suggest that the potential endogeneity of exits seems to be only relevant in the...
