How do the returns to academic education compare with those from vocational education and
training? We address this question for Tanzania allowing for the entry level into vocational
education and for the characteristics of the employing firm. If the firm fixed effect captures
unobserved worker quality then the return to vocational education, at the level at which it occurs,
exceeds that on academic education. However the return to any form of vocational training is less
than that achieved by those who reach A-Level and above. While those with current training earn
more this effect disappears once we allow for firm fixed effects. |
