A sample of 400 students from various secondary schools, 400 parents in the community and 400 private public employees completed a questionnaire that was designed to validate the study. Percentage scores were used to answer the research questions. Results show that students, parents have negative attitude towards acquiring skills knowledge from technical schools such as Mono Polytechnics and National Certificate Education NCE .
