Other papers in this volume report findings on the effects of United States (US) government-sponsored training programs that are obtained from some of the numerous evaluations conducted of those programs. This chapter focuses on the evaluations themselves, how they are used to measure training program effects and issues associated with measuring those effects, with the three major purposes of: attempting to provide guidance in interpreting the estimates of earnings effects reported in other chapters in this book; pointing out some of the limitations of existing estimates of the earnings effects of training programs; and suggesting potentially fruitful approaches that might be used in future evaluations to address some of the limitations of previous training program evaluations.
