INTRODUCTION

• Background of the study

As a result of growing school leavers, unemployment in the 1970’s, the Nigeria government introduced to new national policy on education in 1981 a major provision of the policy was the introduction of the teaching of financial studies (accounts) at the junior secondly school (JSS) level with emphasis on total acquisition of practical skills, values and knowledge that would enable the individual live incoming fully in the society.  One of the reasons for the emphasis on the subject is to equip its graduates with the needed skills for gainful employment even if they terminate their formal education the junior secondary school level.

The decree No. 47 of 8th October, 1991, defined the objectives of the industrial training fund as the promotion and encouragement or acquisition. On the part of the students some of them see themselves as having observation statures being on a learning process and as such do not work conscientiously towards the achievement of organizational goals, while other see themselves as parts and parcel of the organization hence contributing meaningful towards it success.
