List of approved colleges of education and NCE awarding institutions in Nigeria (2019 update) | EduCeleb
EduCeleb
19th April 2019
Colleges of Education are tertiary institutions that offer the minimum teaching qualification in Nigeria, the Nigeria Certificate in Education (NCE). Aside them are other NCE awarding institutions feeding the population of future teachers in the West African nation.
All NCE awarding institutions regulated by the National Commission for Colleges of Education (NCCE), an agency of the Federal Ministry of Education in Nigeria.
In the list below, EduCeleb.com presents you the 177 NCE awarding institutions in Nigeria that are approved by the NCCE. In the event that you can’t find an institution of that like on the list, it might either be new or was never approved by the agency.
There are 21 Federal Colleges of Education, 49 State Colleges of Education and 84 privately owned ones in Nigeria. We also have the National Teachers’ Institute (NTI), 9 polytechnics and 13 other institutions that award the NCE certificate to teacher-trainees after a specified completion of course works.
The list here is accurate as at June 2019. Hence, anyone dealing with any institution not listed is doing so at his or her own risk.
Understanding that the list is in exhaustible, EduCeleb.com would be updating it as more colleges of education are approved by the NCCE.
