Training 1: NTA concepts and macro controls

Trainer: Gretchen Donehower

We will begin with an overall look at the NTA framework, concepts, and estimation strategies, followed by applications of NTA estimates to research and policy issues, and resources available on the NTA website. We will also go over estimating macro controls, the aggregate flows based on national accounts that link NTA to existing macroeconomic measurement and understanding. Training sessions are meant for those new to NTA or who want a basic refresher course.
