Abstract:
This abstract summarizes a study conducted to identify the competency needs of secondary school teachers in Adamawa State, Nigeria, for the effective implementation of the Entrepreneurial Business Trades Curriculum. The study aimed to explore the specific skills and knowledge required by teachers to successfully deliver the curriculum and promote entrepreneurship education among students.

The research employed a mixed-methods approach, combining both qualitative and quantitative data collection methods. A survey questionnaire was administered to a sample of secondary school teachers in Adamawa State to assess their perceived competency needs. Additionally, semi-structured interviews were conducted with a subset of teachers to gain deeper insights into their experiences and perspectives.

The findings revealed several key competencies that were identified as crucial for teachers involved in implementing the Entrepreneurial Business Trades Curriculum. These competencies encompassed both subject-specific knowledge and pedagogical skills. Subject-specific competencies included a strong understanding of entrepreneurship principles, business management, marketing, financial literacy, and interpersonal skills. Pedagogical competencies encompassed effective teaching strategies, classroom management techniques, assessment and evaluation methods, and the ability to foster creativity and innovation among students.

Furthermore, the study identified various challenges faced by teachers in acquiring and developing the required competencies. These challenges included limited access to professional development opportunities, inadequate resources and materials, and a lack of support and recognition from educational authorities.

Based on the findings, recommendations were made to address the competency needs of secondary school teachers in Adamawa State. These recommendations emphasized the importance of providing targeted professional development programs, improving the availability of teaching resources, and establishing a supportive framework that recognizes and rewards teachers' efforts in entrepreneurship education.

Overall, this study contributes to the understanding of the specific competencies needed by secondary school teachers for the successful implementation of the Entrepreneurial Business Trades Curriculum in Adamawa State, Nigeria. The findings can inform educational policymakers, curriculum developers, and teacher training institutions in their efforts to enhance entrepreneurship education and promote economic empowerment among secondary school students.
