The survey research design method was adopted for the study. The population for the study was 45, which comprises 25 lecturers of Automotive Technologies in Colleges of Education and 20 Industrial Workers of Automobile in Northern, Nigeria. There was no sampling because the population was of manageable size. A questionnaire consisting 71 items was developed and used for data collection. The questionnaire was face validated by two lecturers from Department of Automobile Technology, Federal College of Education (Tech) Bichi, Kano State and one from Department of Automobile Technology, Federal College of Education (Tech) Gombe State. Cronbach alpha reliability method was used in determining the internal consistency of the instrument. A reliability coefficient of 0.81 was obtained. Forty five copies of questionnaire were administered to the respondent with help of two research assistants. 40 copies of the questionnaire were retrieved and analyzed using the mean and improvement needed index to answer research questions. T-test statistic was employed to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significant. Based on the findings of the study, the following recommendations are made: Workshop and seminars should be organized for lecturers of automotive technology on modern automotive engine system, transmission system, automotive electrical system (Autotronics) and use of modern diagnostic equipment in order to build their capacity and Lecturers of automotive technology in Colleges of Education (Technical) should be also sent for further training in the Universities in order to acquire more knowledge in their area of specialization.
