In the landscape of tertiary education in Nigeria, monotechnics also called specialised institutions play a vital role by offering focused training in specific technical or vocational disciplines. In Ekiti State, these institutions serve as important options for students seeking targeted skill acquisition and shorter-cycle credentials (rather than full university degrees).
In this blog post, we will talk about the federal, state and private monotechnics (or specialised institutions) in Ekiti State highlighting what’s currently listed, what each category implies, and the caveats to know.
##Federal
At this time, publicly verified records do not clearly list any federally-owned monotechnics in Ekiti State that are designated as “monotechnics/specialised institutions” under the categorisation by the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE).
##State
For state-owned monotechnics in Ekiti State, the situation is similar: a listing on a directory of “State Monotechnics in Ekiti State” returns no entries. Therefore, students looking for state-monotechnic options in Ekiti should verify each institution individually (accreditation, current status) rather than relying on directory listings.
##Private
1. Fabotas College of Health Science and Technology, Ado Ekiti listed as a private monotechnic in Ekiti State.
