He congratulated the graduands and urged them to join him in charting a new course for the nation, stressing “together we can work to reinvent our country and negotiate better tomorrow for all.”In his address at the ceremony, the Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu said that the government is committed to strengthening the capacity of the polytechnics to train competent persons capable of contributing to the social, economic, industrial and technological development of the nation. He reiterated that Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) is the ultimate solution to the problem of unemployment in the country.The Minister urged polytechnics and other institutions of higher learning in the country to develop career guidance that will enable the youth to engage in lifelong learning and development as well as key into the transformation agenda of the Government because it has a major role in the area of TVET. He said that the youth cannot be useful in the task of nation building unless they acquire the skills and technical knowhow considering the fact that development of a nation depends on its youths which consti tute the bulk of the workforce.

The Chairman called on the Management of the Polytechnic to be prudent in utilization of resources adding that educational institutions especially polytechnics must ensure judicious use of resources allocated to them.He charged the institution to strive to establish centres of excellence in s p e c i a l i z e d f i e l d s u c h a s agriculture and solid minerals. In his address, the Ag. Rector of the Polytechnic, ESV. Abdullahi Alhassan Ahmed stressed the importance of scientific and technological literacy, stating that jobs demand specialized skills which require people to think out of the box and called on the government to invest more in polytechnic education for the acquisition of skills needed in the

st21 century economy.He commended the Federal Government for bridging the gap between HND and B.sc in relation to entry into the public service, stressing that this will boost the confidence and morale of the polytechnic graduands.The Ag. Rector added that institutions have a role to play in ensuring that the curriculum contents of the polytechnic which focus on science, technical and skills acquisition is practically accomplished.According to him, the polytechnic has taken the bull by the horns in addressing the challenges facing the institution among which is the convocation ceremony which was last done in 2013. He said the i n s t i t u t i o n h a s r e c o r d e d developments which cut across the areas of infrastructure, academic, staff development as well as

Adamu said the NSQF being a sectoral framework is only a p r e c u r s o r t o t h e n a t i o n a l

Qualifications Framework (NQF) that will incorporate all education and training achievements both in the formal, informal, and non-formal training sectors. He said the national Framework will integrate in a competency–based training and a s s e s s m e n t s y s t e m , a l l qualifications available in the country and allow seamless transition among the various institutions that are available in the different sectors of the economy. Drawing from Nigeria's example, the Minister called for regional standardization and recognition of competencies and certificates in the

thand 30 , 2018 said a continental paradigm shift on TVET has become necessary to address all the various levels of technical training pathways, primary to tertiary, formal, informal and non-formal.Mal. Adamu noted that the future and the way to go for Africa is the TVET way; adding that the solution to the continent 's unemployment problem and its bid to industrialize lie in the technical education. According to the Minister, “What it requires today is that, in line with African Union's Continental Strategy for Technical and Vocational Education and Training, CAPA must seek to undergo – and engender a continental – paradigm shift on TVET”.To attain the paradigm shift on TVET, the Minister said African countries must first strive to restore glory to the image of TVET; and ensure and coordinate the emergence of effective continental partnerships to support the development of human capital for sustainable development.The Minister who declared the conference open on behalf of Nigeria's President, Mohammadu Buhari GCFR, said the Federal Government of Nigeria has laid out its new Economic Recovery and Growth Plan 2017 – 2020 (ERGP) as its strategy for economic growth and sustainable development.

he Executive Secretary of the National Board for TTechnical Education, Dr.

Masa'udu Adamu Kazaure has canvased for a system of skills training that ensures that all types of skills for employment are recognized and benchmarked on a common framework.Dr. Kazaure who wants a paradigm shift in skills training from the conventional Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) to institutionalization of National Skills Qualifications Framework (NSQF) said the NSQF is fundamental to the recognition, validation, certification and h a r m o n i z a t i o n o f s k i l l s qualifications acquired from different learning environment. In a PowerPoint presentation on “Promoting Impact of TVET th rough Deve lopmen t and Harmonisation of Occupational S t a n d a r d s a n d Vo c a t i o n a l Qualifications Frameworks” at the 2018 Commonwealth Association of Technical Universities and

thPolytechnics in Africa (CAPA) 40 Anniversary Conference held in Abuja, Dr. Kazaure said the challenges facing the development of TVET in Africa can be addressed th rough the p romot ion of Vocational/Skills Qualifications Framework.He highlighted the factors h a m p e r i n g t e c h n i c a l a n d professional skills capacity building systems in Africa to include; Poor relations with the labour market, Weak private sector participation, Out-dated curricula, Skills mismatch, Low access and poor infrastructure, Low funding and lack of supportive policy, Lack o f t r a i n e d p e r s o n n e l a n d inadequate programmes.He therefore argued that these challenges could be addressed t h r o u g h Vo c a t i o n a l / S k i l l s Qualifications Framework; a

concept which according to him, emphasis a shift from a centralized, public sector, state-controlled system to a decentralized, regulated, and partnerships based learning and training system.Explaining further, Dr. Kazaure said t h a t N a t i o n a l Vo c a t i o n a l Qua l i f i ca t ions (NVQs) a re competence-based qualifications which demonstrate that the holder has the nationally benchmarked skills and aptitude required to perform the job in question; and which could provide avenues for upward progression in the labour market and into higher level education and training routes if desired; and which are also designed on the basis of 'National Occupational Standards' (NOS), which define the standards of p e r f o r m a n c e r e q u i r e d f o r competence in an occupation”.The Executive Secretary noted that Africa can achieve substantial progress in building the skills of its workforce if countries can make hard choices of investing in skills to optimize overall productivity growth (Skills for persistent non-wage, informal employment versus skills for catalytic and higher productivity sectors), and investing

Employment (WITED) held her maiden National Conference recently to further enhance the part icipat ion of women in Te c h n i c a l a n d Vo c a t i o n a l Education and Training (TVET).The three day conference with the theme ''Care for the future'' which was held at the main campus of the Polytechnic in Kaduna also aimed at exploring more job opportunities and ensure sustainable lifestyle for women.In a goodwill message, the Executive Secretary of the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE), Dr. Masa'udu Adamu Kazaure expressed the Board's readiness to continue to support the involvement of women in TVET towards creating more jobs and ensuring sustainable lifestyle for women.Dr. Kazaure who described the dearth of women participation in TVET as worrisome, noted that the population of women participating in technological programmes is less than 10%. He further noted that available statistics show that Kaduna Polytechnic has less than 30% female academic staff with a lower percentage of them involved in technical work.According to him, the involvement of women in TVET must be addressed at the early stage of enrollment in school. “This can be tackled by addressing the challenge of low child enrollment in primary and secondary levels of our education” he noted.He stressed that WITED and other stakeholders must embark on massive sensitization campaign through outreach programmes to

schools and holding town hall meetings to reach parents so as to disabuse their minds of biases against women participation in technical/technological field of study.The Executive Secretary who was represented by Engr. Jeremiah Emokhare, a Deputy Director in the Board, reiterated the Board's con t inuous suppor t to the involvement of women in technical fields of learning stressing that “Having Nigeria become one of the first 20 economies in the world may not be possible without significant n u m b e r o f w o m e n f u l l y participating in TVET”.The lead paper presenter, Dr. (Mrs.) Dorcas Adeagbo in a paper titled “ Te c h n i c a l E d u c a t i o n a n d Employment for Women in Nigeria: A Path Way to Sustainable Care for the Future” stated that the conference will afford opportunity to review the importance of t e c h n i c a l e d u c a t i o n a n d employment of women in caring for the future of the country.Dr. Adeagbo who described the theme of the workshop as timely, noted that sustainable care for the future has become a global phenomenon which must be in front

burner of every serious nation.Enumerating the benefits of TVET, she stressed that women could raise potential power and thereby provide strong inducement to seek gainful employment, change attitude towards perceived women's traditional roles in the household and at the work place as well as eradicate extreme poverty and promote gender equality for sustainable development among others.In her address, the coordinator of the Chapter, Dr. (Mrs.) Comfort Mado-Alabi who highlighted the Chapter's objectives and challenges since inception stated that women have been encouraged to actively p a r t i c i p a t e i n t e c h n i c a l / t e c h n o l o g i c a l programmes of study and work through various programmes organized by the Chapter.While expressing appreciation to NBTE for her consistent effort to increased women participation in the TVET sector, Dr. Mado-Alabi urged the Executive Secretary to ensure that women are fully represented at the next CAPA International Conference.Highlight of the occasion was the launching of the Chapter's WITED magazine.

E x c e l l e n c e f o r T V E i n collaboration with the Librarians Registration Council of Nigeria (LRCN) has organized a three-day training workshop to equip l ibrar ians and informat ion managers of TVET institutions with basic knowledge and skills required to meet the current ICT needs of library users.Addressing participants at the opening of the workshop, the Executive Secretary of NBTE, Dr. Masa 'udu Adamu Kazaure commended the efforts of the Board's Centre of Excellence for TVE and the LRCN in organizing the workshop which he described as timely, noting that the Board was determined to build the capacity of Librarians and information managers in the TVET sector for sustainable service delivery.Dr. Kazaure who was represented at the occasion by the Director, Vocational, Technical and Skills Development of the NBTE, Engr. A b b a t i D a w a k i n - K u d u Mohammed said that the library and its role in academic research is g o i n g t h r o u g h a c l e a r

sttransformation in the 21 century hence the need to ensure TVET institutions key into e-library services in line with best global practices.'The face of libraries is fast changing as content is moving towards a digital platform and internet access is becoming more available and is being considered a human necessity than a privilege', he noted.In a remark, the Registrar, LRCN, Prof. Michael Afolabi said one of the ways in which the Library and information science sector can demonstrate being a critical agent in the change agenda of the Federal Government is to actively engage

in re-training, re-tooling and re-engineering the professionals and the profession.'Our role as a Council would be continuing in capacity building of librarians to prepare them for massive deployment of e-libraries in the country'' he added.While urging government at all levels to equip TVET institutions with the requisite library facilities, Prof. Afolabi noted that librarians are major stakeholders that can bring about the definite change needed in the education sector.In a communiqué issued at the end of the workshop, participants noted that e-Library has become a n e c e s s a r y r e q u i r e m e n t f o r educational system around the world therefore, sustainable funding is required in the area of e-Resources subscription, acquisition and deployment of infrastructure, t ra ining and re- t ra ining of Librarians and library staff in electronic resource management to efficiently deliver information services to the users. And that the e-Library is a veritable facility for the i n t e n d e d F l e x i b l e S k i l l s Development/Tertiary Institution e-Learning Resource Project.Participants therefore resolved that more practical sessions and case studies of successful e-Libraries be included in subsequent workshops,

organizers should spread the venue for the workshop to cut across the geo-po l i t i ca l zones in the subsequent workshops, LRCN and N B T E s h o u l d o r g a n i z e a curriculum review exercise of ND and HND that will comprise more of ICTs concepts,NBTE shou ld exp lo re t he possibilities of building consortium amongst the TVET libraries considering the huge financial constraints faced by the institutions and Heads of TVET institutions libraries are encouraged to explore off-line e-library services.Participants further recommended that Heads of TVET institutions libraries should explore Open Access resources in order to enrich their library collections, National Library of Nigeria (NLN) should as a matter of policy make the submiss ion of e -copies of publications collected as legal deposit in order to enrich our national (local) content of e-resources, and commended the role o f T E T F U N D i n L i b r a r y Development in Nigeria.Participants however lamented the downward trend in the allocation of Library Intervention Fund by TETFUND which they said is having negative effect on Library operations and called on NBTE to intervene on behalf of TVET Libraries.
