| Abstract: | This paper identifies the funding needs of technology education, which include purchase of new equipment, training and retraining of technology education teachers among others. It also considers the tragic consequences of improper funding of technology education institutions on the sustainable development of Nigerian youths. Constraints to proper funding were explored. It was observed that poor image and sole funding of technology education by government constitute a cog in the wheel of development and advancement of technology education in Nigeria. Finally, a call was made for involvement of the communities, foreign aids, industries, and technology education institutions in funding technology education. |
