arise. Any nation in the world that wants to develop must harness the skill and
knowledge of its youth and utilize them efficiently and effectively for the
transformation of the economy, society, politics and culture. The essence to
develop economy is to help in job creation, capacity-building, growth and.
development. This can be best achieved when introduced in the school
curriculum. This paper therefore emphasises the need for entrepreneurship
education in colleges of education for the sustainable development of the nation.
It is recommended that the National Commission for Colleges of Education
(NCCE) should force colleges that are yet to adopt entrepreneurial education
programs to do so. Also, entrepreneurship education should go beyond the walls
of colleges and be adopted as a program enshrined in the curriculum of primary
and secondary schools. There is also need for entrepreneurial competences to
transform acquired skills into action for national development. Consequently, this
paper addresses the issue of competent teachers not being adequately used.

Abstract People have always realized that Vocational education is’ the factor that brings’
about national development. The central goal of Vocational Education is to
prepare one productive employment. Such employment can be self-employed.
This paper examines the problem militating against Vocational education, its
implications for economic development and its products in terms of suitability for
the changing environment. The world is changing as a result of technological and
economic advancement and this creates peculiar problems and challenges which
most vocational education graduates cannot cope with and this makes them not
suitable for employment. This paper emphasizes the need to get Vocational
Education graduates trained on entrepreneurship skills and knowledge through
well planned and executed entrepreneurship education by Vocational Education.
Vocational education graduates will be fulfilled. They will be productive and
committed as employees or employers of labour as they transit to a meaningful
life in the world
