The growth of any Business education programme, like the other education programme, is largely determined by the objectives of the programme, the provision of infrastructural materials and well defined curriculum contents in addition to the provision of well trained, adequately qualified and well motivated classroom lecturers.
More importantly business lecturers working in collaboration with other interest groups are often considered important because they are in much better position to advance on he curriculum content of business education as well as on the instructional objectives of the programme as derived from government overall philosophy and objectives of education. In like manner such classroom lecturers are much more better.
There is therefore an urgent need for the expansion of the programme of business education in our higher institutions especially in Enugu Local Government Area.
The expansion does not however, mean much unless the programme maintenance, a corresponding high growth which of course is measured by the attitude of the government, schools, parents, public and lecturers towards it, as well as effectiveness of teaching the courses in order to effect learning hence the study of the growth of business education in some selected higher institutions in Enugu in Enugu Local Government Area. The findings may serve as a guide to the administration in making necessary adjustments in planning the programme of business education. This has been lightening by the fact that students of business education do not enjoy as many scholarships as students in other courses.
School enrolment in business schools does not enhance the production of enough graduates to meet the main power needs of the state.
This does not augur well for business education. The various problems spot lighted above prompted the need for this research.
