Resum
In this paper we analyse empirically the relation between employer-provided training and the probability of subsequent job exit. The main contribution to the literature is the estimation approach used. In particular, we propose an empirical model which takes into account for the possible endogeneity between training and mobility labour variables. With this model it�s possible to obtain an estimation of the true causal effect of employer-provided training on the probability of subsequent job exit. Using Spanish data from the European Community Household Panel (ECHP) it�s shown that the negative effect of training on job mobility, usually found in this area, disappears once the endogeneity problem discussed above is accounted for.
