Participation in Continuing Vocational Training in Germany between 1989 and 2008

Year:    2013

Author:    Yendell, Alexander Philipp

Journal of Contextual Economics – Schmollers Jahrbuch, Vol. 133 (2013), Iss. 2 : pp. 169–183

Abstract

The question of who participates in continuing vocational training and who does not remains critical in a society in which the importance of lifelong learning is assumed. On the basis of the SOEP data collection periods of 1989, 1993, 2000, 2004 and 2008, I will describe participation in continuing vocational training in Germany over this time frame, and explain it in relation to two prominent theories used in the economics of education – the human capital theory and the theory of labour market segmentation.
