Abstract

This study determined facilities for implementing entrepreneurship skills training in Motor Vehicle Mechanic Work. The descriptive survey research study was guided by a research question. The study was carried in Lagos State Nigeria with a population of 230. Facilities for implementing entrepreneurship skills training Questionnaire (FIESTQ) containing 25 items was the instrument developed and used for data collection. It was validated by 3 experts and tested to obtain a reliability coefficient of 0.81 using Cronbach Alpha. The FIESTQ was used for collecting data from 230 respondents. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics of mean and standard deviation to answer the research question and inferential statistics of t-test to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The study found that facilities are essential in the implementation of entrepreneurship skills training in motor vehicle mechanic work. The findings on the hypothesis revealed that there was no significant difference in the mean responses of motor vehicle mechanic work and supervisors in the registered automobile industries. The study recommended that the identified training facilities should be procured by relevant stakeholders to implement entrepreneurship skills training in Motor Vehicle Mechanic Work and that sufficient amount of funds should be deployed by the government to employ requisite manpower in schools.
