formulating measures to promote research and development

country, it will make use of such findings to assess the
effectiveness of R & D activities and overall performance of
RTOs in the country. The resultant output would guide
government in formulating policies to strengthen RTOs and
enable them contribute to the socio-economic development in
the country.
As a source of knowledge, the study will serve as a repository
of information on best management practices for RTOs in the
country and contribute to available relevant literature in R&D
management. It will equally expose other areas for future
research, which are required for the continuous improvement
of R&D activities in the country. The overall expectation from
this study is the transformation of RTOs in Nigeria for better
