The study was fully quantitative and 218 cross sectional survey instrument was systematically distributed to TVET teachers from five higher institutions and 205 questionnaires were retrieved based on the stratified sampling technique. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted to analyse the data. The research discovered that there are 19 elements relevant to the competency framework for TVET teacher Nigerian TVET higher institutions. A similar research should be undertaken to extend the result to reflect other Non-TVET institutions in Nigeria.
