4. Abstract
Technical education, as entrenched in the Nigerian National Policy on
Education, is concerned with qualitative technological human resources
development directed towards a national pool of skilled and self-reliant
craftsmen, technicians and technologists in technical and vocational fields.
The two key phrases, which readily come to mind in this type of
education, are competency-based skill-acquisition and sound scientific
knowledge. In order to cope with the requirements of fast developing
economy, to gear up employment generation and meet the challenges of
globalization, it was absolutely imperative to realign Technical and
Vocational Education system in the country to cater for these
requirements. This paper attempts to appraise the role of vocational and
technical education in the creation of job opportunities in Nigeria.
CHAPTER ONE
1.1 Background of the Study
Technical education facilitates the acquisition of practical
and applied skills as well as basic scientific knowledge, it
is therefore a planned program of courses and learning
experiences that begins with exploration of career options,
supports basic academic and life skills, and enables
achievement of high academic standards, leadership,
preparation for industry-defined work, and advanced and
continuing education (CTE, 2009). Nuru (2007) indicated

5. that changes in a country’s economy is required to
prepare young people for the jobs of the future and
technical and vocational education have important roles to
play in this process. Technical and vocational education
has been an integral part of national development.
According to Van Ark (1992) the Dutch school system is
said to pay attention to “high standards in mathematics
and the provision of technical education at ages 14-16 for
a third of all pupils, and widespread vocational education
at 16 +. Unfortunately, Nigeria does not seem to give
technical and vocational education the attention they
deserve and this appears to be one of the reasons for
rising unemployment and poverty in the society. May
(2006) also posits that the neglect of technical education
in the area of adequate personnel, financial support and
facilities to encourage technical and vocational education
are robbing the nation of the contribution their graduates
would make in the economy. Furthermore, Asogwa and
Diogu (2007) maintained that there is an urgent need for
the people’s attention to be redirected towards self-reliant
and sustainable means of livelihood which technical

6. education provides. This research work therefore brings to
the fore some salient contributions this neglected
education sector can make in Nigeria economic
development by producing labour market ready
graduates.
