Abstract

The study focused on investigating quality of education and training in Federal Technical and Vocational Education and Training Institute. It was explored using a sample of 241 respondents selected through stratified sampling technique and simple random sampling technique. Data were gathered by a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods. Self- administered questionnaires for directors, division heads, trainers, and trainees and interviews for directors and division heads were also the instruments employed for data collection. Analysis of the data was done using descriptive statistics. Findings were that quality of education was affected by inadequate supporting inputs and facilities, inappropriate training methods and lack of trainers’ effectiveness and trainees’ motivation. Finally, based on the finding I would recommended that the Institute should solve the shortage of resources, improve trainers’ capacity by short term and long term training and developing the leadership competency is one of important tools to insure quality of education in the Federal Technical and Vocational Education and Training Institute.
