Abstract: |
This article analyzes the impact of increasing workplace-based versus school-based vocational education to promote the employment of low-skilled young people. We combine a field experiment in France with the estimation of a job search and matching model which takes into account the productivity difference of the young people in these two pathways and the choice of employers. We find a limited positive impact of increasing workplace-based education on youth employment by the fact that the effect comes almost totally from remaining in the training firm without having a significant impact on young people seeking employment in other firms after graduation. |
