Accreditation of Engineering Technology Programmes in the Nigerian Polytechnics and similar tertiary Institutions
This paper examines the current state of accreditation of engineering technology programmes in the tertiary Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions in Nigeria and also proffers a new direction to perform accreditation process in the future. The study found that both public and private Polytechnics and similar tertiary institutions are offering a total of fifty four (54) engineering technology programmes. It was also found that National Diploma in Electrical/Electronic Engineering Technology was the most preferred programme offered by the Polytechnics in Nigeria. It is suggested that private institutions in Nigeria should be supported by individuals, communities, associations, government agencies and all stakeholders in the TVET sector in order to offer diversified and more engineering technology programmes so as to produce middle and high levels skilled manpower for the Nigerian economy. This will forestall turn out of monolithic block of professionals in Electrical/Electronic Engineering Technology and encourage rather homogenous training of skilled manpower in the Polytechnics for Nigeria’s heterogeneous economy
