Expanding the Evidence Base on Workforce Training for Economic Mobility

Workforce training programs in the United States have delivered inconsistent returns on investment to workers seeking better opportunities in the labor market. Hosted by WorkRise and J-PAL North America, this webinar on March 9, 2022 from 2:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. ET will discuss the power of randomized controlled trials in generating evidence to inform and guide decisionmaking and investment in workforce training. Speakers will share insights from a WorkRise-funded evaluation of the Pursuit Fellowship, a sectoral employment program that equips adults from under-resourced communities with the necessary skills to build careers in the high-wage technology sector.
