Michigan Earn and Learn: An Outcome and Implementation Evaluation of a Transitional Job and Training Program

From the Social Impact Research Center, this resource presents findings from an 18-month evaluation of a Michigan statewide program designed to link participants with employment barriers to both training and subsidized jobs. The report focuses on program design, implementation, and outcomes. The authors recommend providing basic skills training if a program’s target population has complex barriers to employment, as well as emphasizing the high level of value that employer partners gain from these types of programs.
