Abstract
Detailed consideration of divers emerging challenges and trends that have cropped up in the conceptualization of Technical and Vocational Education Training in Nigeria are well discussed in this paper. Despite the vital resolution of crisis experienced in Vocational Education in Nigeria in connection to human capital development, brought about emerged challenges that have resulted in malfunctioning and irregularity of Vocational Education in order to achieve the desired goal, the training of technical personnel in Nigeria has witnessed many challenges among which are policies which have no connection with workplace challenges, curriculum that has little or no relationship with workplace and social needs, inadequate funding, lack of motivation for teachers, inadequate equipment, infrastructural facilities, brain drain and poor staff training. This paper therefore aims to identify the challenges, proffer solutions and offer recommendations for effective technical and vocational education and training (TVET) in Nigeria which would result in improved teaching and learning of technical and vocational education.
