多年来，丹麦一直保持和发展其学徒制度，可与德国制度相媲美。今天，大约40%的年轻人接受学徒培训。该系统的可持续性建立在学徒的供求处于合理平衡的条件下。近年来，在德国和丹麦，学徒制的供求之间出现了严重的不匹配。这两个国家都采用了补贴和学校组织的学徒课程，以克服这种短缺的影响。在本文中，我们调查了补贴可能产生的影响。一个独特的纵向数据集，使我们能够遵循1000个工作场所，从1980年至1991年。这使得可以控制观察到的和未观察到的工作场所影响。估计数字显示，资助对某些行业的学额供应有影响，而另一些行业则完全没有影响。将总效果与成本进行了比较，发现每个额外学徒的总成本约为54，000丹麦克朗。最后，利用所得结果模拟了补贴政策变化的影响。
For years, Denmark has maintained and developed its apprenticeship system which is comparable to the German system. Today, about 40% of a youth cohort get apprenticeship training. The sustainabilty of the system builds on the condition that demand and supply for apprentices are in a reasonable balance. In recent years there have been periods with serious mismatches between the demand for and the supply of apprenticeships in both Germany and Denmark. Subsidies and school organized apprentice courses were introduced in both countries to overcome the effect of this shortage. In this paper we have investigated the possible impact of the subsidies. A unique longitudinal data set that enables us to follow 1000 work places from 1980 to 1991 is applied. This makes it possible to control for observed and unobserved work place effects. The estimates show that the subsidies have had an impact on the supply of places in some industries while others are not affected at all. The total effect has been compared to the costs and it is found that the total costs per extra apprenticeship is about 54,000 DKK. Finally, the results are used to simulate the effects of changing the subsidies.
