dc.description.abstractThe study was conducted to evaluate NCE Business Education programme as an entry requirement into the first degree programme in Business Education in Nigerian Universities. The population of the study consists of One hundred and thirty five (135) NCE graduates in 200 Level Business Education programme in the four oldest Universities that offer Business Education in Nigeria. The Universities are Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria (60); University of Nigeria, Nsukka, (25); University of Benin, Benin City (35) and Rivers State University of Science and Technology, Port Harcourt (15). The research population serves as sample since only 200 Level Business Education students with NCE degree were studied. The research population was considered not too large and therefore there was no need for sampling. Questionnaire and documentary evidence were used in gathering data, which were statistically analyzed and interpreted. The study revealed the following; 1. There is no significantassociation between the courses offered at NCE. Business Education and those offered in Business Education degree Programme. 2. Some courses were totally new to NCE graduates who gained admission to Business Education degree programme. 3. Some Universities donot give course exemptions to NCE Business Education Certificate holders who pursue Business Education degree programme in Nigerian Universities. 4. Most NCE Business Education Certificate holders spend more than two years for the post NCE degree programme. In this study the researcher made the following recommendations: (a) Holders of NCE Certificate with a minimum grade of Credit at NCE should spend only two years to obtain the bachelors degree in Business Education. (b) Business Education Curriculum planners should harmonize the - programmes in all Universities to ensure that all students who are NCE holders and admitted into Business Education degree programme in the university get adequate credit hours exemption on the programme. (c) The entry qualification into NCE programme be raised to a minimum of four credits including English Language and Mathematics. The Study highlights the implications for classroom instructions to include among others, that broadening the course content of NCE programme would give room for improvement and that exposure to new courses at NCE level would offer new challenges and better performance.en_US
