• Proposed project aims to summarize existing approaches to measuring of economic returns to investment into education and human capital, known from Slovak and foreign literature. Consequently, these approaches will be confronted with data from Slovakia. Primarily the methodologies focused on measuring individual and social, momentary and lifetime returns from education will be involved. These will be complemented by methods of measuring net effects of training measures.

  The descriptions of existing methodological approaches, together with related discussion would form the core of the final monograph, which should serve the Slovak professional community and possibly also for educational purposes. Results of verifications of particular methodological approaches using Slovak data will be also included in the final monograph.

  Individual data from the Labour Force Survey, the European Survey on Income and Living Conditions and data from Slovak regional Public Employment Service Agencies would be utilized.
