Abstract

The world economic crisis has further made profound the woes of global unemployment. In Nigeria, the concerns for unemployment are graver because it is not all about the scarcity of jobs, but about the employability of the job seekers. This paper carefully presents the Nigerian employment challenges, establishes a nexus between employability and unemployment, dissects the concept of Technical and Vocational Education and suggests how employability of Nigerian youths can be enhanced with the instrumentality of Technical and Vocational education.
