Grants and Contracts Details
Description
Abstract
In this project, we will conduct research in the state of Kentucky, using administrative data from
the Council of Postsecondary Education, to understand the economic processes that lead
students to pursue and complete short-term and vocational certificates, the outcomes and
benefits associated with such educational pursuits, and the enrollment patterns, decisions, and
outcomes of adult and nontraditional students. We will answer questions such as: What are the
labor market benefits (employment, earnings) of short-term educational and vocational
certificates? What are the predictors of certificate completion and field of study?
How do the benefits of enrollment vary across fields of study, student demographic
characteristics, institutions attended, educational and vocational background, and geography?
