+abstract: 'Purpose - This study sets out to investigate the pattern of benefits
+
+  from education along the earnings distribution and compares this pattern
+
+  between general and vocational/technical education in Singapore, with a
+
+  particular focus on male-female differences.
+
+  Design/methodology/approach - Quantile regression methodology is used,
+
+  which allows for estimates of education benefits that differentiate the
+
+  contribution of the quantity and quality of education along the earnings
+
+  distribution. The quantile regression estimates highlight where in the
+
+  income/ability distribution the impact of education is more pronounced.
+
+  Findings - Finds that, while the pattern of returns to an additional
+
+  year of education for general education follows that of other high
+
+  income countries, exhibiting increasing returns to education as one goes
+
+  from lower to higher income quantiles, the returns to vocational
+
+  education exhibit much lower heterogeneity. Based on the findings, the
+
+  vocational education system in Singapore has served women with secondary
+
+  vocational qualifications particularly well. They earn more, have higher
+
+  labor force participation, experience higher employment rates and are
+
+  associated with a narrower gender earnings gap compared with women with
+
+  general education. However, this is not the case for women with
+
+  polytechnic qualifications, who earn much less than men with such
+
+  qualifications.
+
+  Practical implications - The findings suggest that, by and large,
+
+  Singapore''s vocational education system at the secondary level has
+
+  successfully addressed the needs of the industry and has contributed
+
+  towards narrowing gender earnings differentials. It has also contributed
+
+  towards less overall earnings inequality, because it results in less
+
+  heterogeneity in the returns to education, compared with general
+
+  education. However, the curricula of polytechnics need to be re-examined
+
+  to identify the cause of the sharply lower female benefits from this
+
+  type of education.
+
+  Originality/value - The paper contributes to the empirical literature
+
+  with its use of the quantile regression methodology in evaluating the
+
+  benefits of vocational versus general education for men and women.'
