Abstract

The relationship between higher vocational training and academic education has changed in the course of the higher education reforms in Europe. This paper analyzes the rewards of tertiary vocational and academic exams in Germany for the exam cohorts of the years 2000-2005 and 2006-2011 up to six years after their graduation. Data are taken from employee surveys (BIBB/BAuA) 2006 and 2012. In order to represent the rewards, the wage rewards (gross hourly wages) and the professional positions achieved (high-skilled jobs) are taken into consideration. Linear and logistic regression models are applied on the basis of pooled data sets. The results show that there was no decrease of the rewards for advanced vocational training vs. basic vocational training in the period considered, whereas the wage rewards for bachelor exams and traditional diplomas of universities for applied sciences vs. vocational training declined.
