520 | |a A study was conducted of a representative sample of 5,467 adult Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) participants who exited the program between July 1, 1985, and June 30, 1986 to determine the occupations in which male and female participants were trained and subsequently placed. Job skill level was classified as higher, moderate, or lower-level position. The study found that more than 3,800 adults in the sample received occupational training, either on the job or in occupational classroom training programs. The remaining participants received only job search assistance, basic education, and short-term work experience. The study found that a greater proportion of males were trained and placed in higher skill occupations. However, a greater proportion of females were placed in moderate skill positions. Women were more often trained and placed in clerical/typist and secretarial positions, whereas men were likely to be trained or placed in custodial, machine operator, or laborer positions. Overall, men tended to receive higher wages at placement regardless of the skill level or type of training. (The bulk of this document consists of six data tables giving numbers and percentages of males and females in various occupations in regard to training, placement, skill level, and wages.) (KC) | ||
