Abstract

---

The study was conducted to appraise Vocational and Technical education in Nigeria, which has been identified as the only sector that has varieties of developmental benefits. For instance, it has been identified as the bedrock of economic growth of any nation. Some countries like Singapore, Japan and India, among others, are good examples of where technical education has achieved its aim. This, perhaps, is the reason for the study so that the government will turn its attention to that sector - to breathe life into the life wire of the country (youths).

Keywords: Vocational, Technical, Education, Development, Economic growth.
