?:abstract
  • This paper uses data from the 2006 Adult Literacy and Life skills (ALL) survey (n=7131) to examine how foreign and domestic education credentials affect earnings in the New Zealand (NZ) labour market. We use earnings regressions that control for the sample selection problem. The research extends findings obtained from census and NZ Income Survey data by incorporating a broader range of variables that could potentially affect earnings, including the splitting of years of education into education obtained in NZ and education abroad. Our findings reconfirm the common finding that for immigrants the education gained in the country of birth has a lower return in the NZ labour market than the return the NZ born receive for the equivalent education. However, post settlement education has a higher return for migrants than for comparable NZ born. Interestingly, the highest returns are found for NZ born who have obtained an education abroad, acquired prior to returning to the New Zealand labour market. (xsd:string)
