Abstract
Based on the microdata of the first wave of the Socio-Economic Panel (1984) we analyze (a) the determinants of on-the-job training, (b) differences in the acquisition of training between men and women, and (c) the impact of firm size on training. OLS regression and polytomous probit estimates with training as dependent variable are estimated. On the one hand evidence is found that the acquisition of training can be interpreted as an investment decision. On the other hand institutional forces have an impact on the allocation of training and training differences between men and women.
