  1. Average marginal effects derived from a multinomial logit model. \(^{\star \star \star }\), \(^{\star \star }\), and \(^{\star }\) denote statistical significance at the 1%, 5%, and 10% level, respectively. Standard errors given in parentheses. Results are weighted with sampling weights. The dependent variable refers to a categorical variable capturing firms’ desire to revise the training curriculum less often, more often, or keep the period between two revisions as it is. Occupation, industry and region dummies as shown in Table 9. Additional firm and apprentice characteristics are listed in Table 1
