University Daily Kansan; January 19, 1982 Page 7 Profs give CETA high mark By JANET MURPHY Staff Renorter State-administered job training programs benefit low-income persons and may save the state money, ac- tribute the School of Business faculty members. Their recently released report said these programs could decrease unemployment insurance payouts and through increases in personal income. DAVID SHULENBURGER, associate professor of business, and Judith C. Sardo, research associate, issued the report based on their findings in developing an evaluation involvement in Kansas Department of Human Resources. This system will be used to compare statistics of people enrolled in the Comprehensive Employment Training Program, and those receiving unemployment benefits. President Reagan plans to eliminate CETA funding Oct. 1, 1982. In their report, Shulenburger and Sardo said that people trained in the CETA program usually found jobs. Their report concluded that job training programs benefited the state. Shulenburger said he thought their study showed that CETA improved the job situation. "I think it's a good idea for Congress to continue CETA," he said. SHULENBURGER said there were a number of studies coming out from other states, done at the state and local levels, about the effectiveness of CETA. Most of these reports show that CETA has improved the job situation. In their study, Shulenburger and Sardo compared two groups of economically disadvantaged people.

HBO The researchers began their study in January 1981. They studied the periods of April-June 1979 and July-September 1980. They found that people who received training earned 16 percent more than those who did not. THE TWO GROUPS consisted of people who were economically disadvantaged and whose demographics (age, race, education and sex) were about the same, Stand-alone groups.

In weighing the gains to the state against the direct cost of training participants, Shulenburger found the return on the state's investment was about 14 percent a year. It would take about three years for Shulenburger to earn back what it put into the program.

"Given current interest rates that's not a good return," he said, "but given more normal rates, it is." The report showed that the benefits of the training were not uniform for all groups.

Men trained in the same time period only made 32.5 percent more than their counterparts. 644 New Hampshire/841-2100 THE DIFFERENCE in benefits narrowed in the group trained in the July-September 1980 time period, as trained women made 85 percent more than their non-trained peers and 61 percent more than non-trained men. Workers 45 years old or older experienced considerable income increases, said Shulenburger, as compared to those in the 16 to 21 age group. He said this was because CETA allowed the older worker to learn a job and find a job better than that person may have had earlier in his life. The younger group usually started slow but gained steadily in employment. Sulenburger said this kind of information gathering system is one of the most managed in the world. JERRY HARPER ATTORNEY It is a relatively cheap system to run, according to Shulenburger, because it relies on data already collected for other purposes, such as who receives unemployment insurance and how much. ALTHOUGH THE CETA cut is not yet definite, Shulenburger said it may still be necessary, even desirable, to train people on the fringes of the labor force. 901 KENTUCKY Suite 204 841-9485 Federal money outside of CETA could come back to the states in the form of block-grants. Block-grants are monies given to the states by the federal government for such programs as job training. The money is garnered from federal taxes. Shulenburger said it was up to the states to decide how the money would be used. However, if their report is correct, Shulenburg说 he believed that selected occupational training would be a good investment. Kansas Union Dining Service has two Locations to serve you!
