How do economists sometimes measure human capital in an economy?

Economists cannot measure human capital as such because it refers to the stock of knowledge and skills, embodied in the ability to perform labour. However they measure the labour force by looking at the amount of people able to work between the ages of 18-65, and they can also look at the qualifications that these people hold, so they may be able to make a rough analysis of human capital, measured upon the number people in the labour force and comparing this to the level of education they have received.
