“Technical Education in the State is going through some transformation which includes upgrading the quality of knowledge and up-skilling teachers and instructors towards ensuring that the quality of learning is relevant to the industry and the entrepreneurs who will hire the graduates of the colleges”, she posited.

Speaking further, Azeez explained that other priority areas to uplift the Colleges include rebranding of the five colleges, increasing student enrolment, developing partnerships, reviewing existing courses and introducing ICT-based skill areas and so on.
