Abstract: This study evaluates the effectiveness of vocational education in rural areas of Nigeria, examining educational access, program outcomes, and community impacts of vocational training initiatives designed to address rural development challenges, enhance economic opportunities, and support sustainable livelihoods in rural communities. Vocational education plays a crucial role in bridging urban-rural educational divides, providing skills training, and empowering rural populations with employable skills essential for local development and economic resilience. The research aims to (1) assess the effectiveness of vocational education programs in rural areas, (2) analyze perceptions and experiences of stakeholders regarding program impacts, community engagement, and educational outcomes, and (3) propose recommendations for improving vocational education access, expanding program reach, and enhancing rural development through skills training and workforce empowerment. A survey research design is justified to gather insights from vocational educators, community leaders, and program beneficiaries familiar with rural vocational education initiatives and outcomes. A sample size of 300 participants will be selected through purposive sampling to represent vocational educators, community development practitioners, and local government officials in Kogi State. Case studies will examine successful rural vocational education projects and their outcomes in promoting local employment, skills development, and community sustainability. Findings indicated positive impacts of vocational education in rural areas, identified challenges such as infrastructure limitations and program sustainability, and highlighted effective practices such as community partnerships, mobile training units, and agricultural vocational programs in supporting rural development and enhancing livelihood opportunities. Recommendations include expanding vocational training facilities, integrating rural development goals, and fostering community engagement to strengthen vocational education delivery, empower rural populations, and promote sustainable economic growth in rural Nigeria.
