Industrial Clusters and Vocational Education: Evidence From China
Despite the widely acknowledged importance of vocational education in fostering social mobility and economic development, research on the impact of industrial clusters on vocational education remains sparse. This study aims to address this gap by examining the influence of industrial clusters on vocational education and the moderating role of the external environment. By collecting 965,123 firm samples, and by applying the fixed effect model and instrumental variable method, we find that industrial clusters positively influence vocational education. This study offers valuable insights for policymakers and educational practitioners, highlighting the importance of aligning vocational education with the dynamics of industrial clusters to enhance regional innovation and economic competitiveness.
期刊介绍:
Managerial and Decision Economics will publish articles applying economic reasoning to managerial decision-making and management strategy.Management strategy concerns practical decisions that managers face about how to compete, how to succeed, and how to organize to achieve their goals. Economic thinking and analysis provides a critical foundation for strategic decision-making across a variety of dimensions. For example, economic insights may help in determining which activities to outsource and which to perfom internally. They can help unravel questions regarding what drives performance differences among firms and what allows these differences to persist. They can contribute to an appreciation of how industries, organizations, and capabilities evolve.
