The Federal Government’s Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programme is set to commence formal training activities nationwide on May 18, 2026, marking a key step in its ongoing skills development and youth empowerment drive.
According to official communication sent to selected applicants, beneficiaries have been successfully matched to designated training centres across the country under the TVET Initiative. The message confirms placement details, including training centre location, contact information, and assigned skill areas such as plumbing and pipe-fitting.
Formal training activities will commence on 18th May. You are expected to complete your registration before this date and be fully prepared to begin training.
Beneficiaries are required to complete their enrolment within immediately after receiving placement email to avoid being removed from the programme, and their slot given to other pending applicants. This includes printing their dashboard details, reporting physically to their assigned centres, presenting valid identification, and completing biometric registration. Training centres are also expected to confirm each participant’s status as “Registered” on the programme portal.
The TVET programme, implemented under the Federal Ministry of Education, is designed to equip Nigerians with practical, industry-relevant skills while providing a monthly stipend of ₦22,500 to support trainees during the learning period.
Officials say the initiative is part of a broader effort to address unemployment, strengthen vocational capacity, and align workforce skills with national economic priorities.
