This initiative has resulted in the creation of 27 new National Occupational Standards and the updating of four existing standards, totaling 31 reviewed standards.
Alausa emphasized that the curriculum modernisation program, supported by the ₦1 billion intervention, aims to produce graduates with practical and market-relevant competencies, improving employability, entrepreneurship, and national productivity. The reforms also seek to align technical education programmes with industry requirements, technological advancements, and emerging economic opportunities.
The investment comes as part of a broader effort to restructure the National Board for Technical Education and enhance its capacity to regulate and support polytechnics and other technical institutions.
