ABSTRACT Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) deals with development of skills, knowledge and attitude for the design, construction, installations, operations, repairs and maintenance needed in the industrialization process. Most industries in Nigeria often become moribund because of over-dependent on expatriate skills to carry out the foregoing tasks in the industrialization processes. Entrepreneurial services, such as competence in management are as well a challenge to the survival of industries. Therefore, TEVET and entrepreneurship have critical roles in sustainable industrialization. To actualize sustainable industrialization, Nigeria TVET and entrepreneurship must be firmly dovetailed in the industrialization process through human resource development and training. Key Words: Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET), entrepreneurship, industrialization, sustainable industrialization and entrepreneurial skills.
