Abstract
⺠Panel data models estimate the returns to qualifications obtained in adulthood using the British Household Panel. ⺠Time-varying heterogeneity is accounted for by controlling for prior wage trends. ⺠Our results show a medium-run return for women of 10% on hourly wages. ⺠For men, initial suggestions of a positive return are not robust.
