In 1984, Morocco implemented an ambitious reform of its vocational training system, with the main goal of increasing youth employment. The intent of this reform was to (1) increase the system’s capacity and (2) develop several specific fields of training designed to fit the evolving needs of the labor market. We analyze three types of programs that were implemented as part of these reforms using data from the “2004 Follow-up” survey which collected data on graduates of urban vocational training facilities four years after their graduation. While we find that both the privatization of VT and policies designed to encourage entrepreneurship among graduates were largely ineffective, we show that participating in a traineeship after graduation has a lasting and strongly positive impact on subsequent labor market outcomes.
