ABSTRACT

This study is directed towards finding out the survey of problems associated with the teaching and learning of shorthand and typewriting in Higher Institutions with the aim of ameliorating or improving the situation in order to achieve this purpose, five main hypothesis were made to validate or reject the assumption.

The researcher was necessitated by the engagement of unqualified persons as secretaries in the labor market arising from their poor performances in shorthand and typewriting examinations to qualified them as secretaries.

In an effort to carry out this research however, a population of 590 students offering shorthand and typewriting in both IMT and OSISATECH polytechnics Enugu were used for the study. To reach at the opinion of the respondents therefore, random sampling as well as questionnaires and oral interview techniques were used.

The questionnaire designed to elicit information to answer the five questions put forward in the study dealt with students entry qualifications, learning materials, teacherâ€™s qualifications, English language and interest with the items put in the for of yes or no.

Data collected and presented were analyzed using percentages. With the limitations of the study, findings and conclusions were made that the survey of problems associated with the teaching and learning of shorthand and typewriting in both IMT and OSISATECH polytechnics Enugu is most probably a universal problem

To this end therefore, recommendations were made that the federal Government of Nigeria should among other things provide adequate teaching facilities, to the nationâ€™s higher Institutions that offer the core course. On the other hand, IMT and OSISATECH polytechnics Enugu should restructure their admission policy to be in line with that practice in other higher institutions where shorthand and typewriting are offered.
