Abstract
The Youth Training programme (YT), formerly known as the Youth
Training Scheme, has been in existence for over 11 years. During that
time the objectives and content of the programme have changed, and so
too has the institutional framework within which the school‐to‐work
transition takes place. Provides a detailed account of the historical
development of the YT programme, and highlights a number of structural
characteristics of the programme that raise implications for the
econometric assessment of the programme′s impact on employment
probabilities and wages. Presents a review and assessment of the UK
literature on the econometric evaluation of YT. Concludes by raising a
number of implications for future research.
