WP4 of the DIAMOND Project dives deep into the economic effectiveness of re- and upskilling programs. By combining meta-analysis, modeling, and real-world impact evaluation, WP4 aims to guide better policy design and ensure labor market inclusion that truly works.
What Happens in WP4?
1. Meta-Analysis of Re/-Upskilling Programs
We’ll map existing macroeconomic research on the impact of re- and upskilling programs to build a comprehensive knowledge base.
📌Leader: Aarhus Universitet 🇩🇰
Partners: Freie Universität Berlin 🇩🇪, RWTH Aachen Universitet 🇩🇪
2. Stochastic Life-Cycle Modelling of Employment Paths
A dynamic life-cycle model will simulate how individuals experience risks (like job loss or mismatches) and how smart training solutions (like MOVEᴱ) can mitigate them.
📌Leader: RWTH Aachen Universitet 🇩🇪
Partners: Freie Universität Berlin 🇩🇪
3. Economic Cost-Benefit Analyses of DIAMOND Solutions
A randomized field experiment will compare traditional training with DIAMOND’s tailored upskilling pathways (ᴱGROW & MOVEᴱ), evaluating the impact on job applications, wages, and well-being.
📌 Lead: Freie Universität Berlin 🇩🇪
Partners: RWTH Aachen Universitet 🇩🇪, Universitetet i Wien 🇦🇹
4. Policy Redesign for Active Labour Market Policies (ALMP)
We will translate economic insights into actionable policy recommendations and host a policy roundtable to rethink how Europe designs future-proof skills programs.
