The Study adopted a Quasi-experimental design involving pre-test post-test design. All the Seventy four respondents were exposed to five weeks Relationship Education Training. ENRICH Marital Satisfaction Scale (EMS; Fowlers & Olson, 1993) was adapted and modified to suit the objectives of the study. The instrument was named Marital Satisfaction Enrichment Questionnaire tagged ―MSEQ‖ which was used as an instrument for data collection. The instrument had reliability coefficients of 0.89 indicating high reliability. Mean and the standard deviation were used to answer all the six research questions. Paired sample t-test was used to test all null hypotheses 1-5 while Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test hypothesis 6 at 0.05 level of significance. The findings of the study revealed that communication skill training had significant effect on marital satisfaction [t (73, 0.05) = 4.469, p = 0.001, p0.05], parenting skill training has no significant effect on couples‘ parenting [t(73, 0.05) = 2.365, p = 0.075, p>0.05]. The result further reveals that significant effect difference exists among the components xvii or indices of all the marital satisfaction [F (369, 4) = 52.77, p = 000 p<0.05] and that relationship education skills training had improved Young Dual-career couples‘ marital satisfaction.
