FCE (T), Akoka History
There was dire need to educate and produce technical teachers in Nigeria after the termination, in September 1967, of the Special Fund Project of the International Labor Organization (ILO) for the training of Technical/Vocational educators.
This need was earlier highlighted in the Gailers’ Report of August 1964 titled “a National Plan for the Development of Technical Education in the Federal Republic of Nigeria”. The report emphasized that the establishment of a Technical Teacher Education institution was for effective manpower development of technology in Nigeria.
