Introduction:
Nigeria is facing significant challenges in youth employment, with a high rate of unemployment and underemployment among young people. This issue is exacerbated by a lack of quality education and vocational training opportunities. Education policies play a crucial role in shaping the skills and employment prospects of young people in the country. This research project aims to examine the impact of education policies on youth employment in Nigeria.

1. To analyze the current education policies in Nigeria and their implications for youth employment.
2. To assess the effectiveness of vocational training programs in preparing young people for the workforce.
3. To explore the barriers to accessing quality education and vocational training opportunities for young people in Nigeria.
4. To identify best practices in education policies and programs that promote youth employment in other countries.
Methodology:
This research will involve a mix of qualitative and quantitative methods, including document analysis, interviews with policymakers and education stakeholders, and surveys of young people in Nigeria. Data will be collected from government reports, academic publications, and online resources. The research will also review international literature on education policies and youth employment to provide a comparative analysis.
Expected Outcomes:
The findings of this research will contribute to a deeper understanding of the link between education policies and youth employment in Nigeria. The study will provide insights into the effectiveness of current policies and programs, as well as recommendations for improving youth employment outcomes. The research will also highlight best practices from other countries that could be adapted to the Nigerian context.
Significance of the Study:
This research is significant because it addresses a critical issue facing Nigeria – youth unemployment. By examining the impact of education policies on youth employment, the study will inform policymakers, educators, and other stakeholders on strategies to improve the skills and employability of young people in the country.
