Kiener, Fabienne; Gnehm, Ann-Sophie; Clematide, Simon; Backes-Gellner, Uschi – Journal of Education and Work, 2022
We use vocational training curricula to investigate how IT skills are trained within broader "skills packages" and how these relate to labour market outcomes. Skills packages are the typical combinations of IT skills (e.g., CNC) and technical or nontechnical skills (e.g., material sciences or work safety) that are jointly required in the…

Ferreyra, Maria Marta; Galindo, Camila; Urzúa, Sergio S. – National Bureau of Economic Research, 2022
This paper estimates the heterogeneous labor market effects of enrolling in higher education short-cycle (SC) programs. Expanding access to these programs might affect the behavior of some students (compliers) in two margins: the expansion margin (students who would not have enrolled in higher education otherwise) and the diversion margin…

Henneberger, Angela K.; Rose, Bess A.; Mushonga, Dawnsha R.; Nam, Boyoung; Preston, Alison M. – Journal of Education for Students Placed at Risk, 2023
School concentrated disadvantage has been linked to poorer academic achievement and psychosocial functioning in prior research. The current study expands upon prior examinations of school concentrated disadvantage by applying a measurement approach first described by Michelmore and Dynarski in 2017, where eligibility for free and reduced-price…

Friedrich, Anett; Hirtz, Sandra – Journal of Education and Work, 2021
Analysing wage differentials due to educational investments within occupations can explain the persistent wage inequality in western industrialised countries, such as Germany. This article contributes to the discussion by examining occupation-specific variance in wage returns for men working full-time in Western Germany between 1976 and 2010. We…

Allais, Stephanie – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2022
This paper examines three interrelated factors outside of formal provision of technical and vocational education and training (TVET) in sub-Saharan Africa that have undermined TVET systems. The first is the process, pace, and levels of industrialisation, which has had a direct effect on TVET provision: low numbers of well-paying jobs requiring…

Jennifer L. Nelson; Steven P. Vallas – Grantee Submission, 2021
Recent research on racial inequality at work offers fruitful new insights on the organizational conditions that foster racial segregation, racial disparities in wages, and racial hierarchies in the labor market and the workplace. Much less is known, however, about the specifically occupational influences that impinge on equitable work outcomes by…

This dissertation presents three separate essays. The first two essays explore the gender wage gap and its dynamics in urban China from 1995 to 2018. The first chapter decomposes the gender wage gap based on the observed wage for workers with a precise measure of the hourly wages. The first chapter examines the observed average gender wage gap in…

Andres, Lesley; Lauterbach, Wolfgang; Jongbloed, Janine; Hümme, Hartwig – International Journal of Lifelong Education, 2021
In this paper, we employ a comparative life course approach for Canada and Germany to unravel the relationships among general and vocational educational attainment and different life course activities, with a focus on labour market and income inequality by gender. Life course theory and related concepts of 'time,' 'normative patterns,' 'order and…

Winters, Marcus A. – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2023
Prior research substantially overstates the cost of retention under test-based promotion policies to both taxpayers and students who delay labor market entry because it omits two important factors. First, there is a delay between the intervention and the taxpayer's expenditure. Second, on average, the treatment leads to less than a full year of…

Amior, Michael – Centre for Economic Performance, 2019
Better-educated workers form many more long-distance job matches, and they move more quickly following local employment shocks. I argue this is a consequence of larger dispersion in wage offers, independent of geography. In a frictional market, this generates larger surpluses for workers in new matches, which can better justify the cost of moving…

Morrar, Rabeh; Syed Zwick, Hélène – Journal of Education and Work, 2021
Although it might be considered one of the main vigorous distortions in the Palestinian labour market, qualification mismatch has not been studied by researchers in Palestine. We draw upon this gap using Palestinian labour force survey between 2009 and 2016. This paper therefore presents a multinomial logit model to identify the factors affecting…

Hunt, Wil; Scott, Peter – Studies in Higher Education, 2020
Secondary analysis of the UK's 2011/12 Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education survey reveals that many existing assumptions about graduate internships are questionable. This article proposes a reliable way of estimating the true extent of internships including those reported as 'voluntary' jobs: hidden internships. In doing so the article…
