Abstract

Investitionen in Weiterbildung werden typischerweise durch die erwartete Zunahme individueller Fähigkeiten motiviert. In dieser Arbeit wird untersucht, von welchen sozio-ökonomischen und beruflichen Merkmalen die Teilnahme an formeller und informeller beruflicher Weiterbildung abhängt, und welche Auswirkungen diese auf den individuellen Arbeitsverdienst in einer Stichprobe von Erwerbstätigen mit einer beruflichen Lehre haben. Die Untersuchung vergleicht die Bestimmungsgründe und Wirkungen zwischen abhängigen und selbständig Erwerbstätigen. Selbständige, so die Hypothese, tragen die Kosten der Weiterbildung selbst. Deren Weiterbildungsaktivitäten haben daher investiven Charakter, d.h. sie dienen vorwiegend der Verbesserung des Humankapitals. Bei abhängig Beschäftigten kommen weitere Motive hinzu, die sich aus der Arbeitgeber-Arbeitnehmer-Beziehung ergeben.
