1.1 GENERAL BACKGROUND:

The growth of any Business education programme, like the other education programme, is largely determined by the objectives of the programme, the provision of infrastructural materials and well defined curriculum contents in addition to the provision of well trained, adequately qualified and well motivated classroom lecturers.

More importantly business lecturers working in collaboration with other interest groups are often considered important because they are in much better position to advance on he curriculum content of business education as well as on the instructional objectives of the programme as derived from government overall philosophy and objectives of education. In like manner such classroom lecturers are much more better.

There is therefore an urgent need for the expansion of the programme of business education in our higher institutions especially in Enugu Local Government Area.

The expansion does not however, mean much unless the programme maintenance, a corresponding high growth which of course is measured by the attitude of the government, schools, parents, public and lecturers towards it, as well as effectiveness of teaching the courses in order to effect learning hence the study of the growth of business education in some selected higher institutions in Enugu in Enugu Local Government Area. The findings may serve as a guide to the administration in making necessary adjustments in planning the programme of business education.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

In curriculum planning for business education programme, for instance, the business community which will be served by these schools, are not invited to the students financially, while funds available to business schools are not the most economical way. The assumption that business courses can be taught without adequate professional training is a fallacy.

Lack of job prestige and poor occupational reward discourages many lecturers. It also scares potential business lecturers away from profession. Business education while other discipline has low status and prestige within the society. This has constituted a threat to the advance of business education. Many of the business lecturers now learn the teaching profession for the industries. Even business education students feel shy to be associated with the discipline.
