Public human resource policies are motivated by market failures that prevent equal access to education and training and lead to too low investments in skills. The market failures also limit the supply of information about human resources—and, thus, transparency. At the same time, the dynamics of learning impose strong requirements on information, for planning and evaluation purposes. Five aspects of human resource policy relevant for transparency are considered: efficiency and equity, input utilization, learning outcomes, the dimensioning of education, and benefits and costs. The chapter shows that there need not be a tradeoff between equity and efficiency and argued that input use transparency should focus on the teachers. Regarding learning outcomes, needs for better information are identified in the tails of the age distribution. Suggestions for enhanced transparency concern, inter alia, improved benefit–cost analyses through better estimates of educational externalities and extended policy accountability through initial commitment to effect evaluations.
