Data obtained through separate questionnaires were analyzed using statistical tools like frequency, percentage, mean, weighted mean and t-test. Moreover, data gathered through interview and document analysis were analyzed in narrative form to complement the quantitative findings. The study found out that inadequate awareness creation, lack of special fund for green jobs, lack of teaching materials, trainers turnover, demotivation of trainers, and low capacity of trainers to adopt and transfer technology. Based on the findings, it was concluded that the Colleges was not strong enough in equipping the trainees with the necessary skills that enhance green jobs. In line with the above findings and conclusion, the colleges should arouse the interest of trainees and trainers by providing incentives at least in the form of recognition certificate for their well practices in green jobs.
