Abstract

The Nigerian society today is filled with school-age children – particularly teenagers – who are supposed to be in school but are found on the streets offering some services to anybody that is interested. Some of these out-of-school children especially school dropouts claimed to have acquired some form of skills at some skills acquisition centres run by the government, private individuals and non-governmental organisations. There is therefore a need for an in-depth evaluation of the effectiveness of skill acquisition programmes. The result revealed that the skill acquisition programmes were ineffective at meeting the needs of the school dropouts.
