EDUCATIONAND ECONOMIC MOBILITY

There are several points on which there is agreement, while healthy debate surrounds others:

Increases in parent education lead to better educational outcomes of children, especially reducing the probability of very low achievement.

Scholars disagree about whether a significant number of students fail to attend college due to limited family financial resources. Some argue there is no effect while others argue for modest impacts.

Remedial programs such as the GED and job training for youths appear to have limited impact and so likely do not affect mobility. Job training for adults appears to have effects that may enhance both absolute and relative mobility within and across generations.
