The study's primary goal was to evaluate the methodological skills required by instructors in Radio Television and Global System Mobile Servicing in Vocational Centers in Gombe State, Nigeria. The study used a descriptive survey research approach and was carried out in Gombe State, Nigeria. 55 respondents made up the study's population, including 42 teachers and 13 principals. There was no sampling because the population was of a manageable size, hence whole-population-sampling technique was employed for the study. The structured questionnaire "Questionnaire on the Appraisal of Skills Required by Instructors (QASRI)" designed by the researchers served as the instrument for data collection. The instrument was validated by three professionals, and Cronbach Alpha yielded a reliability value of 0.72. The mean statistics were utilized to answer the research questions, and the null hypotheses were tested using the t-test at a significance threshold of 0.05. According to the statistics, 51.2% of the respondents in Nigeria meet the minimal teaching standards, while 41.8% do not. Additionally, the study found that although teachers in the Radio Television and Global System Mobile Service trade in Vocational Centers in Gombe State, Nigeria, has some abilities in the profession, much more is still needed. It was suggested that the Gombe State Ministry of Education make sure that instructors appointed to vocational centers are well qualified and hold at least the Nigerian minimum for instructors. Additionally, the government should provide on-the-job training for instructors at vocational centers so they may develop more technical skills for efficient teaching and learning.
