DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:\n\nDoes Dual Vocational Education and Training Pay Off?\n\n\nAbstract:\nTh
 is paper analyzes the causal impact of dual vocational education and traini
 ng (VET) on the labor market insertion of youth. Using matched education an
 d social security records, we estimate the causal impact of a major reform 
 that introduced a new dual track, which combines firm- and school-based tra
 ining, on labor market outcomes of the first three dual VET cohorts in the 
 Spanish region of Madrid. The control group is composed of individuals who 
 graduated in the same fields and years in school-based VET. Selection into 
 dual VET is dealt with using a distance-based instrumental variable. Dual V
 ET is found to generate sizeable improvements in employment and earnings, b
 ut no significant impact on job quality. The results are not driven by pre-
 reform differences in the quality of the schools that adopted dual VET and 
 the higher retention rate of dual VET graduates only partly explains the du
 al premium.\n
