Abstract: This study addresses challenges in assessing practical skills in vocational education in Nigeria, focusing on methodologies, tools, and strategies for effectively evaluating hands-on competencies essential for vocational training and workforce readiness. Practical skill assessment is crucial for validating student proficiency, ensuring program quality, and aligning vocational education outcomes with industry standards and expectations. The research aims to (1) identify common challenges and barriers in practical skill assessment within vocational programs, (2) explore innovative assessment methodologies and tools used to evaluate hands-on competencies, and (3) propose recommendations for improving practical skill assessment practices to enhance educational quality and student preparedness in Nigerian vocational education. A survey research design is justified to gather insights from vocational instructors, assessment specialists, and industry representatives familiar with practical skill assessment practices. A sample size of 300 participants will be selected through purposive sampling to represent vocational educators, industry assessors, and educational policymakers in Rivers State. Case studies will examine diverse approaches to practical skill assessment and their effectiveness in measuring student learning outcomes and industry readiness. Findings indicated variability in assessment practices and criteria, identified challenges such as resource constraints and assessment standardization issues, and highlighted the role of competency-based frameworks and continuous feedback in enhancing assessment reliability. Recommendations include standardizing assessment criteria, integrating digital assessment tools, and fostering collaboration with industry partners to ensure alignment with vocational skill requirements and improve assessment validity and reliability.
