The 2011/12 survey PIAAC is analyzed regarding the formation of skills (literacy, numeracy and information technologies) by family background, gender and age, and regarding the relationships between skill levels and education of adult population in the Czech Republic. The impact of the family background was increasing and the chances of men and women to attain higher education have been reversed in the past: currently, women have twice as high a chance to attain secondary education than men and three times higher chance to pass to tertiary education. Skills are formed both by education and social origin which affects them rather indirectly. In the age perspective, skills are rising up to around 32 years of age and slowly "evaporate" after, with minor differences based on gender and the type of competences. The importance of skills and its empirical analysis is put into the context of political economy research stressing its importance for individual careers and competiveness of national economy.

This paper deals with the topic of measurement of education services. The main part of output of education services is considered to be non-market in the Czech Republic and it is estimated a sum of related costs. Deflation has been traditionally done using input method i.e. recalculation of each component separately. The main drawback of this method is an assumption of direct correlation between changes in inputs and changes in output. Productivity can not be estimated therefore output methods based on direct volume measurement are now preferred for individual services. Methodology of direct volume measurement of education services has been developed in the paper. This approach is based on number of students in detailed breakdown weighted by costs in order to include changes in the structure of fields of study. Estimates are available since 2004 as data sources are available. Besides estimates of development of non-market output development of all education services is estimated.
