The Proprietor, Oak Business School (Monotechnic), Dr Lance Elakama, has appealed to stakeholders in the education sector to train learners to become employers of labour and not job seekers. Elakama maintained that the nation’s education system was too academic, saying it prepares graduates for jobs instead of grooming them to become employers of labour. “The school has secured accreditation in five courses, namely Marketing, Accountancy, Business Administration, Banking and Finance as well as Computer Science,” he said. Elakama said, “We have competent and qualified lecturers on ground, we want to give our students practical exposure, opening them up to our businesses and software during internships. One of the lecturers, Ogbonnna Young, said the school would run both full time and part-time, he also assured of uninterrupted academic session.
