Does the order and timing of active labour market programmes matter?
So far, the majority of labour market policy evaluation studies have concentrated on the impact of a single programme compared to participation or to nonparticipation in other programmes. The authors of CEPR DP6521 use a more dynamic evaluation framework and extend the focus to issues such as the order and timing of programmes and the effects of programme sequences, i.e. multiple participation in the same programme, or different programmes.
