The document represents an integral part of a study undertaken as an evaluation of the impact of institutional training on women. The re-analysis of data for the Manpower Development Training Act (MDTA) Outcome Study, using measures such as job placement, length of training, post-training income, and the completion of training, indicates that in some ways the MDTA training has been at least as successful for women as men. These ways include: (1) females were more likely than males to use their acquired training in post-training employment (females-62 percent, males-39 percent), (2) females experienced highest incremental earnings across all training periods and occupational categories (females-$968, males-$692), (3) more female trainees (39 percent) than male trainees (32 percent) felt that MDTA training helped them get a job. In the following areas of the traiing program women did not fare as well: (1) a larger percentage of females (15 percent) than males (9 percent) were found to have reported no post-training earnings, and (2) females showed a lower correlation than males between months in training and large salary increases.
