Abstract: "The Research Data Centre of the German Federal Employment Agency provides access to high quality micro data on the German labour market. With 'ALWA survey data linked to administrative data of the IAB' (ALWA-ADIAB) it offers a new data set that combines survey information from the ALWA study ( 'Arbeiten und Lernen im Wandel' - Working and Learning in a Changing World) with micro data from social security records. By linking these two usually distinct data sources ALWA-ADIAB opens the field to a wide range of research questions, both substantive and methodological. The ALWA study's comprehensive data on schooling and training decisions, labour market behavior, and regional mobility are supple-mented by and can be cross-checked with the administrative data on employment careers, and vice versa. The administrative individual data include information on spells of employment, benefit receipt, and job search and are complemented by information about the establishments ALWA respondents work at."
