A structured questionnaire was used as instrument for data collection. Three research questions and three null hypotheses were formulated. Crombach alpha method was used to determine the reliability coefficient of the instrument which yielded 0.85. Frequency count and weighted mean was used to analyzed the data for answering the research questions while t-test statistics was used to test the hypotheses of no significant different at 0.05 level of significance. It was found that 18 items agreed on the administrative strategies that could improve collaboration between technical colleges and industries for skill acquisition in electrical installation and maintenance work in Plateau state, 24 agreed on school-based activities that could improve collaboration between technical colleges and industries and 17 on industry-based skills that could improve collaboration between technical colleges and industries for skill acquisition in electrical installation and maintenance work in Plateau state. There was no significant difference between the mean responses of industrial supervisors and technical teachers on ways for improving collaboration between technical colleges and industries for skill acquisition in electrical installation and maintenance work. There was no significance difference between the mean responses of industrial supervisors and Technical Teachers on the administrative strategies that could improve school-industry collaboration for skill acquisition in electrical installation and maintenance in technical colleges in Plateau state. There was no significant difference between the mean responses of industrial supervisors and technical teachers on the school-based activities that could improve school-industry collaboration for skill acquisition in electrical installation and maintenance work in technical colleges in Plateau state. Also there was no significant difference between the mean responses of industrial supervisors and technical teachers on those industry-based activities that would improve school-industry collaboration in electrical installation and maintenance in technical colleges in Plateau state. It was recommended that industry based job skills should be included in the curriculum of technical colleges for skill acquisition. Technical teachers instructors should visit industrial enterprises to familiarize themselves with the current technologies, sharing of facilities between technical colleges should be encouraged.
