'Linking Education Policy to Labor Market Outcomes' examines current research and new evidence from Ghana and Pakistan representative of two of the poorest regions of the world to assess how education can increase income and help people move out of poverty. This study indicates that in addition to early investments in cognitive and noncognitive skills which produce a high return and lower the cost of later educational investment by making learning at later ages more efficient quality, efficiency, and linkages to the broader macro-economic context also matter. Education and relevant skills are still the key determinants of good labor market outcomes for individuals. However, education policies aimed at improving skills will have a limited effect on the incomes of that skilled workforce or on the performance of a national economy if other policies that increase the demand for these skills are not in place. For education to contribute to national economic growth, policies should aim at improving the quality of education by spending efficiently and by adapting the basic and postbasic curricula to develop the skills increasingly demanded on the global labor market, including critical thinking, problem solving, social behavior, and information technology.

"This paper utilises data from a 2006 survey on the literacy and numeracy skills of the Australian adult population. Analysis reveals that literacy and numeracy skills for nearly half of the population were assessed at either levels 1 (the lowest level) or 2, both of which are below the minimum level deemed necessary to participate in a knowledge-based economy (level 3), [and they] vary according to a number of factors, and were generally highest for people who had either undertaken higher levels of education, were born in an English speaking country or were of prime working age (20-44 years old). Models were used to estimate the effect of improved literacy and numeracy skills on the probability of labour force participation and on wages. Results confirm previous research in the human capital literature -- that improving literacy and numeracy skills has a positive, statistically significant effect on labour market outcomes."--Key points, p. viii.

Written in competency-based format, this professional development package is targeted at Australian teachers of adult English language, literacy, and numeracy working in labor market programs. The approximately 26-hour-long course aims to increase knowledge of and skills in liaising and negotiating with the Commonwealth Employment Service, labor market program characteristics, working with labor market clients, development and delivery of literacy within literacy market programs, and marketing labor market programs. An introduction lists learning outcomes and provides general information on use of the program. Section 1, Participant's Notes, includes three units: the partners, development and delivery, and marketing. Each contains learning outcome, hours, topics, assessment, information (readings), and learning activities. Assessment tasks and procedures are found at the end of the section. Section 2 is a collection of models of good practice in labor market literacy teaching. Section 3 lists print-based resources for teachers working in labor market programs and details how to access them. Section 4 consists of a guide for presenters and facilitators and the curriculum. The guide notes required facilitator or presenter skills, experience, and roles. The curriculum contains course outcomes, structure, assessment strategy, course delivery, articulation and credit transfer, ongoing monitoring and evaluation, module information, competency list, and a 16-item bibliography. Two publications are attached: "Accessing Jobs: A Guide to the Labour Market Programs of the Department of Employment, Education and Training" and "The Information Privacy Principles." (YLB)

This study assesses the effects of literacy and numeracy skills on the labour market outcomes of Canadian high school drop-outs. It finds that these skills have significant effects on the probability of being employed and on hours and weeks of work for both men and women, and also have strong (direct) influences on men's, but not women's incomes. These findings imply that high school curricula that develop literacy and numeracy skills could provide significant returns even for those who do not complete their programs and wind up at the lower end of the labour market.
