Abstract :
In the inception, Technical Vocational
Education and Training (TVET)was more of informal
and non-formal education. Later, it was planned based
on bureaucracies which is a system based on logic, order
and the legitimate use of formal authority. Hierarchy of
offices and authority exist in vocational and technical
schools, colleges and vocational and technical educations
and the practice is more pronounced in the ministries as
compared to the educational settings. A close look at
Nigeria’s vocational and technical institutions today
reveals basically a bureaucratic organization. There is
hierarchy of authority system based on super-ordinatesubordinate relationship, division of labour, a body of
rules and impersonal procedures governing work and
strict emphasis on institutional goals. The element of
bureaucracy is characterized by the following
components: division of labour, impersonal orientation,
hierarchy of authority, rules and regulations and career
orientation. Bureaucracy has its benefits and also, its
shortcomings. However, this paper examined the role of
bureaucracy on vocation and technical education. It
states the role bureaucracy management as on vocational
and technical education with respect to the
characteristics of bureaucracy management principles.
Therefore, it’s conclude that Max weber principle of
management reflect the planning, developing and
provision of necessary control measure in the successful
running of vocational and technical education
programmes.
