Efektivnost rekvalifikačních kurzů Úřadu práce Havlíčkův Brod v letech 2008 - 2011

The thesis is a partial analysis of the efficiency of training programs in Havlíčkův Brod district during the years 2008-2011. Gross effects analysis showed that two thirds of the participants were able to find a job within 12 months after completion of the program. In comparison with other territorial units, training programs achieved same or even better results with lower average costs per participant. Sociodemografic characteristics of the participants did have impact on the value of gross effect. Lower gross effects were found for disadvantaged groups. In most cases the value of gross effect did not fell below 50 %. The highest gross effects were found for vocationally oriented training programs. Targeting analysis based on the value of targeting index showed that training programs targeting on disadvantaged groups were not only in Havlíčkův Brod district in many cases far from being satisfying. The thesis concludes that training programs seem to be efficient labor policy measure and recommends maintaining their range with higher preference of vocationally oriented courses in the future. Labor office officials should improve training programs targeting on disadvantaged groups and consider implementation of zonal counseling along with profiling of employed persons. Further records about unemployed could improve training program preparation process and could ease net effect analysis of the programs which overcomes gross effect analysis's limits discussed in the thesis.
