Abstract

I investigate the effects of high school career and technical education (CTE) on later-life outcomes, by constructing a dynamic structural model that instruments for curricula choice using variation in CTE opportunities and local labor market controls. Estimates derived from national longitudinal data suggest that trade CTE, relative to general education and business CTE, improves wages and employment opportunities while increasing high school graduation but decreasing university graduation propensities. Policy simulations suggest that incorporating vocational certification into CTE would improve labor market outcomes. Simulations also suggest that strict high school tracking would increase the dropout rate but improve outcomes for graduates at the expense of their high school utility.

高中职业技术教育对就业、工资和教育成就的影响

我通过构建一个动态结构模型来研究高中职业和技术教育（CTE）对以后生活结果的影响，该模型利用CTE机会的变化和当地劳动力市场的控制来为课程选择提供工具。根据国家纵向数据得出的估计表明，相对于普通教育和商业CTE，贸易CTE提高了工资和就业机会，同时提高了高中毕业率，但降低了大学毕业倾向。政策模拟表明，将职业认证纳入CTE将改善劳动力市场的结果。模拟还表明，严格的高中跟踪会增加辍学率，但会以牺牲高中实用性为代价改善毕业生的成绩。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
