Abstract

The article delves into the myth surrounding the quality of madrasah formal education in Indonesia, focusing on its labor market outcomes. It compares madrasah education with general and vocational education, highlighting the unique religious subjects and curriculum differences. The study uses the Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS) to analyze the factors influencing madrasah schooling decisions and the returns on education in the labor market. It finds that madrasah graduates have lower wages and higher unemployment rates compared to other education types. The article also discusses the growing Sharia industry in Indonesia and the potential for madrasah graduates to participate in this sector. It concludes by suggesting policy implications to improve madrasah education and labor market outcomes for madrasah graduates.
