Box 4.2. Impact of training case study – ALMP reform in Estonia

A 2011 evaluation using quasi-experimental methods (propensity-score matching) found that unemployed people who had participated in labour market training in 2009 and 2010 experienced a positive effect on employment outcomes and wages. For one programme in particular, which was focused on occupational training:

Participants who completed their training in 2009 (respectively, 2010) experienced a wage increase of EUR 50 (resp. EUR 90) per month on average, one year after participation. This was a 1/3 (respectively 1/2) larger increase than the control group. The requirement for greater labour market relevance of training from 2010 onwards likely explains the larger effect in 2010 relative to 2009.
