The Federal Government has opened applications for the second cohort of its Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Programme, aimed at equipping Nigerian youth with practical skills for employment, entrepreneurship, and national development.
The Honourable Minister of Education, Maruf Tunji Alausa, reaffirmed the government’s commitment to human capital development, describing the programme as a strategic intervention aligned with the Renewed Hope Agenda of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The programme offers 6-month and 1-year hands-on training in accredited centres across all states and the FCT, with participants receiving a monthly stipend of ₦22,500 and nationally recognised certification upon completion.
Training will cover high-demand sectors such as ICT, construction, agriculture, automotive technology, creative media, fashion, cosmetology, tourism, catering, and leather works.
