Smoother School-to-Work Trajectories in the Early 2010s? Evidence for School-Leavers With AT Most Intermediate-Level Certificates and Regional Disparities in Germany

Abstract

"The study examines differences in the school-to-work trajectories (STWT) acrosstime and federal states in Germany. It uses administrative data of school-leavers with atmost intermediate-level certificates from 2009, 2011 and 2013. While the chances of asmooth STWT improved by increasingly favourable economic development after 2009, therelative disadvantage of school-leavers with low certificates continued. The probability of aproblematic STWT remained unaffected and did not vary according to state differences insubsidized training schemes." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
