Abstract

The control of externalities in training is at the heart of Becker's theory : the company, which financed a "specific training", should do its utmost to retain trained employees. The DIFES-CVTS survey, which allows specify the notion of "quasi-specific" training, shows that a non-negligible part of the employees who have benefited from this type of training, nevertheless leave the company. The econometric results also show that the co-financing of training does not protect the employees from leaving the company, or even encourages their departure. In the end, it is therefore the uses of training that are questioned.
