In May @OPRE_ACF & @abtassociates reported new findings of a large RCT of @YearUp - a job training prog for low-income young adults that focuses on fast-growing econ sectors. My quick take: High-quality RCT with blockbuster results: long-term earnings gains of 30% ($8000/yr). 1/3
The RCT had a sample of 2,544 young adults in 8 US cities, & was very well-conducted. Apart from the headline finding - what's remarkable is that it found large effects in virtually all study sites & subgroups, showing the effects generalize broadly. https://t.co/BqQr6O95uD 2/3
