Abstract: This study examines the role of community partnerships in enhancing vocational programs in Nigeria, exploring collaborative initiatives, community engagement strategies, and mutual beneficial relationships aimed at enriching vocational education experiences, resources, and opportunities for students and communities. Community partnerships play a pivotal role in expanding access to vocational training, promoting workforce development, and fostering community-driven solutions to educational challenges and economic development. The research aims to (1) identify types and benefits of community partnerships in vocational education, (2) assess perceptions and experiences of stakeholders regarding the effectiveness and impact of community collaboration on vocational programs, and (3) propose recommendations for developing sustainable community partnerships, leveraging community resources, and maximizing community contributions to support vocational education goals and student success. A survey research design is justified to gather insights from vocational educators, community leaders, and partnership coordinators familiar with community collaboration models and outcomes. A sample size of 300 participants will be chosen through purposive sampling to represent vocational educators, community leaders, and industry partners in Edo State. Case studies will examine successful community partnership initiatives and their outcomes in enhancing vocational program accessibility, community engagement, and student career pathways. Findings indicated diverse community partnership models and benefits such as resource sharing, program sustainability, and student internship opportunities, identified challenges including partnership sustainability and communication barriers, and highlighted effective practices such as needs assessments, partnership agreements, and stakeholder engagement strategies in fostering successful community collaborations. Recommendations include fostering inclusive partnerships, establishing collaborative frameworks, and promoting community involvement to enhance vocational program quality, expand educational opportunities, and support community-driven workforce development initiatives.
