| Abstract | "We study the effect of licensing-induced, occupation-specific education requirements on workers' occupational mobility and earnings. We study this question in the context of Certified Public Accountants' (CPAs) licensingrules, exploiting the staggered introduction of a change in the number and composition of CPAs' educational requirements across states. We find that an increase in mandatory accounting-specific credit hours leads to more time spent in accounting jobs, less cross-occupation job switching, and a reduction in the licensing earnings premium. Supplemental analyses indicate that the effects represent a specialization of worker skills rather than a general decline in CPAs' accounting performance. Thecollective findings suggest that by imposing occupationspecific course requirements, licensing regimes can create less portable human capital, reducing both occupational mobility and the licensing earnings premium." The study refers to the period 2007-2024 (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku). |
