A Duration Analysis of CONALEP (Mexico's National Technical Professional School)
Mexico's National Technical Professional School (Colegio Nacional de Educación Profesional Técnica, CONALEP) is the largest technical
education system in the country. CONALEP serves low-income
students at the upper-secondary school level in Mexico.
Using graduate tracer surveys from CONALEP, the author
analyzes the impact of modular courses and reform programs
implemented by CONALEP in 1991-92 on CONALEP graduates'
labor market outcomes. Results indicate that graduates from
the pre-reform program had to search longer for a job
compared with those of the post-reform program. Graduates
from the post-reform program have 45 percent higher
probability of finding a job than those from the pre-reform
program. However, the pre-reform program cohorts earned
higher hourly wages than those from the post-reform program.
