Basically, quality control measures in vocational and technical education can be provided through

frequent supervision in Vocational and Technical Colleges by their Administrators. This paper

examined the supervision and inspection that go hand in hand wherever a school system works and

where there is good supervision, teachers and students, especially, are likely to be at their best.

Factors militating against quality teaching were examined, the three major skills needed in

supervision process: technical skills, human relation skills and managerial skills were also

discussed. Administrators of Vocational and Technical Colleges need the skills for effective

supervision. Supervision is seen as a continuous process that guides the school-head, staff and

students towards achieving the quality of education of the nation. A programme of educational

supervision, however, sound in principles ultimately depends on the supervisor who is “the man

behind the gun”. The development of relevant skills in vocational trades is required for effective

supervision. The supervisor therefore needs to acquire the skills he is lacking to be effective and

efficient in supervision. In recommendation, Administrators should motivate and inspire their staff

to give their possible best in the pursuance of the objectives of vocational and technical education.

The Ministry of Education and Universal Basic Education Commission should adequately fand

inspection and supervision activities for the administrators to ensure quality teaching and learning

in Vocational and Technical Colleges.
