Abstract: This research explores the impact of cultural awareness on vocational educators in Nigeria, examining cultural competence, diversity training, and inclusive practices essential for understanding cultural dynamics, promoting diversity, and enhancing teaching effectiveness in vocational education settings. Cultural awareness among vocational educators fosters inclusive learning environments, respects diverse perspectives, and supports student success by acknowledging cultural influences on learning styles, communication norms, and educational outcomes. The study aims to (1) assess the influence of cultural awareness on vocational educator attitudes, teaching practices, and student engagement, (2) analyze perceptions and experiences of educators regarding the benefits and challenges of cultural competence in vocational education, and (3) propose recommendations for promoting cultural awareness, integrating diversity training, and fostering inclusive teaching practices to enhance educational quality, student learning experiences, and vocational educator effectiveness in Nigeria. A survey research design is employed to gather insights from vocational educators, diversity coordinators, and cultural competence trainers familiar with cultural awareness practices and outcomes. A sample size of 400 participants will be chosen through purposive sampling to represent vocational educators, diversity specialists, and educational leaders in Delta State. Case studies will examine cultural competency training programs and their outcomes in promoting educator awareness, curriculum diversity, and inclusive teaching practices in vocational education. Findings indicated positive impacts of cultural awareness on educator-student relationships, identified challenges such as cultural biases and curriculum inclusivity gaps, and highlighted effective practices such as cultural competence workshops, inclusive curriculum design, and intercultural communication strategies in advancing cultural awareness and supporting diverse student populations in vocational education. Recommendations include professional development opportunities, cultural competency standards, and inclusive education policies to cultivate culturally responsive teaching environments, enhance educator effectiveness, and promote student success in multicultural vocational classrooms.
