The Kaduna State Government has renewed its commitment to advancing skills acquisition and vocational training across the state. In a major step forward, Governor Sen. Uba Sani held a strategic review meeting yesterday with the Kaduna State Skills Development Council and the Executive Secretary of the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE), Prof. Idris M. Bugaje.
The meeting focused on improving enrollment and recruitment into the newly established Institutes of Vocational Training and Skills Development. These institutes, now fully equipped with state-of-the-art training facilities, are located across the three senatorial districts of the state.
“These institutes will provide practical, industry-relevant training and globally recognised certifications to prepare our youths for employment or self-employment,” Governor Sani stated.
Prof. Bugaje also emphasized the importance of partnerships in vocational education. “We must strengthen collaboration with industries to align training with market needs,” he said.
