EVALUATION OF STUDENTS’ UTILISATION OF ENTREPRENEURIAL SKILLS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME IN CLOTHING, TEXTILES AND ALLIED CRAFT IN UNIVERSITY OF UYO, NIGERIA.
ABSTRACT
Over the years, entrepreneurship education has been a component of comprehensive education given to both undergraduate and postgraduate students in tertiary institutions in Nigeria to curb unemployment incidences. The post training responsiveness to acquired skills among the students have been a subject of debate with respect to the pattern and incidences of utilization. This study therefore sought to evaluate students’ utilisation of entrepreneurial skills development programme of University of Uyo in clothing, textiles and allied craft. The study was guided by five research objectives. The research adopted an ex-post facto design using a researcher-designed questionnaire for data collection. A total of 1078 students from nine centres dealing with clothing, textiles and allied craft trade formed the study population. The sample size was 542 students; 50% of the students’ population in each of the centres were randomly selected from a sampling frame for the study. Data obtained were analysed using descriptive statistics such as frequency counts, simple percentage, incidence in sex and composite index procedures. The findings of the study showed that the level of utilisation ranged from moderately high to low in most of the variables under investigation. It was concluded that the level of students’ utilisation of entrepreneurial skills was inadequate. Thus, there is need for robust evaluation of virtually non-adoption or suboptimal utilization of entrepreneurial skills development programme of University of Uyo in clothing, textiles and allied craft for sustainable transformation of potential alternative means of income or wealth generation.. The study recommended synergy between the providers of the skills acquisition programme and industries to promote competence of the skills for job and wealth creation.
