dc.description.abstractThis study estimates the extent to which apprenticeship affects the academic trajectories of vocational high-school students. Previous research has shown that apprenticeship-based high schools (or dual vocational education) increase employment outcomes compared to school-based-only vocational education. Employing a propensity score matching design, we show that apprenticeship's advantages do not occur at the expense of academic outcomes: apprentices are 0.5 percentage points more likely to graduate on time (p = 0.068) and 3.3 percentage points more likely to access higher education (p = 0.000) than their non-apprentice counterparts. In portraying apprenticeship as a strategy that benefits academic outcomes, this article highlights the importance of how vocational education systems are implemented.
