Abstract
Using a specic microdataset with information on working histories, we analyse the labour market entry of Spanish youths who have completed vocational education. Young people can enter the labour market with vocational high school (upper secondary education) or with vocational college (tertiary education). Both present a period of workplace training, although, as they belong to dierent schooling levels, they have dierent entry requirements. Those who complete vocational college has spent more years in education and we would expect more success in nding a rst job. Surprisingly, results do not conrm this hypothesis. We do not nd important dierences in the estimates of the determinants of transitions across types of vocational education. Apprenticeship has a very important role on increasing the hazard rate to employment and this result holds after controlling for unobserved heterogeneity.
