Abstract: To fight negative trends on youth labour markets, policymakers around the world foster vocational education and training (VET) programmes. We analyse the impact of VET on the youth labour market conditions, thereby exploring the nonlinearity of this effect. To consider differences between countries, we use panel data of 35 countries from 2004 to 2014 and analyse the impact of changing enrolment rates in different educational programmes on changes in the youth labour market situation. We find that dual VET improves the youth labour market conditions. In contrast, school-based VET worsens the youth labour market integration, but not the job quality. However, these advantages and disadvantages diminish with increasing enrolment rates in these programmes.
