The Federal Ministry of Education (FME), Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND), National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Centre Managers shared updates after their meeting on Friday, October 23, 2026.
Trainees whose stipend payments failed are reportedly expected to update bank details from Monday, October 26. A supplementary stipend payment is also expected for affected trainees. However, the update does not confirm that corrections are already available or provide a payment date.
Supplementary payments are expected for eligible centres that missed July and August payments because required documents were submitted late.
State Programme Management Officers (PMOs) are expected to provide lists of centres eligible for September payments, October payments after month-end processing, and the Cohort I third-tranche payment.
Centres should contact their State PMOs for verified information. Trainees should follow official instructions and avoid unverified payment claims.
How to update TVET bank details
From October 26, log in to your TVET dashboard at https://www.tvet.education.gov.ng/ and update your bank details. If unavailable, use dashboard support to request assistance. Never share your password, PIN or one-time password.
