The Edo State Government has restated its commitment towards repositioning technical and vocational education in the state, noting that the government has partnered with the United Nations Children’s Funds and other collaborators to introduce digital learning into technical and vocational schools across the state.
The Commissioner said the Governor Godwin Obaseki-led state government is taking critical steps to reform the TVET sub-sector in Edo State, reassuring that the construction of the 20 new TVET schools across the state’s 18 local councils will begin this year. “As part of the ongoing reforms of our TVET sub-sector by our board, we have identified about 17 industries from oil and gas to the creative industries, among others that we want to train our young people for. Going forward, it’s going to be about practicals and skills.
She further noted, “Our board of TVET is serious about working with our master craftsmen and women and the private sector to start formalizing the non-formal apprenticeship sector. If we are able to formalize our informal sector, it’s going to be beneficial to our youths.”
