Abstract

This chapter examines management perspectives of innovations and entrepreneurship education in Nigerian education: The way forward. It discusses the importance of innovation in education management and reveals entrepreneurship education as a potential strategy to battle unemployment, retrenchment. It serves as a tool for social, economic and societal, even global development. More so, the prevalent health and social circumstance of COVID- 19 Pandemic has generated obvious changes in the world in all spheres of life. The natural focus on education is not misplaced if it can successfully navigate the survival of people and bring about some order in society on equitable parallel with galloping technological development. This chapter draws attention to the need in the management and implementation of entrepreneurship education in Nigerian education and the challenges facing it. It concludes with the ways of implementing sustaining and promoting innovation and entrepreneurship education by suggesting various options including that Nigerian government should emulate Western countries like Israel, China and United States of America by supporting the programme financially, and also by policies supporting entrepreneurs that would drive big and fast job growth. It also suggests that priority attention should be placed in innovation and entrepreneurship by expanding the scope of “mass entrepreneurship” innovation campaign. Wealthy and good spirited individuals should also encourage and motivate university undergraduates, irrespective. of their course of study, out of school youths, people already in business to embrace entrepreneurship and innovative education as an alternative option in helping them to survive in the current and modern competitive economy and thereby escape the bitter grips of unemployment that is almost ravaging the zeal of the unemployed to be useful to the Nigerian society.
