NABTEB records high enrolment in TVET examination
The National Business and Technical Examinations Board (NABTEB) has recorded high enrolment in this year’s Technical and Vocational Education Training (TVET).
Registrar/Chief Executive Officer, NABTEB, Dr. Mohammed Aminu Mohammed, said a total of 29,260 candidates enrolled for this year’s common entrance into federal and state Technical Colleges.
Sr. Mohammed said last year’s enrolment for the TVET examination was 7, 547.
The increase in enrolment was due to plans by President Bola Tinubu to provide incentives for students who got enrolled into Technical colleges across the country.
Among the incentives were free tuition, accommodation, feeding and payment of monthly stipends to students.
Checks showed that Zamfara registered the lowest students for TVET with 25 candidates while Lagos State has the highest with 2887 candidates.
A total of 591 candidates registered for the examination in Edo while Ondo has 639 candidates.
