There has been wide spread outcry by many politicians, parents and guardians, the government and employers on the quality and relevance of education provided at all levels- from pre-school through primary, secondary, tertiary and higher/adult education institutions. The main problem revolves around its inability to prepare students and equip them with sufficient knowledge, skills, and values for formal or self-employment. A critical analysis by writers of this paper/article are of the view that the process of looking for solutions has adopted a narrow conceptualization that put emphasis on skilling, curriculum change and truncated analysis according to levels; instead of advancing the sector-wide approach enunciated in 1997 and without considering necessary support from other sectors to facilitate its realization and to benefit from its impact. As such, the writers are of the view that community services education that embrace a holistic approach that interweave knowledge, skills, values and attitudes; mindset transformation, research, innovation and development, patriotism and hard work; and facilitation is needed to produce desirable outcomes. Hence the gist of this paper/article.
