Abstract

 

Despite the belief that Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) integration makes impact on the entire educational set up, studies directed to ICTs in schools have placed too much emphasis on the variables at class level neglecting other areas which ICTs are applied (for example, administration). In order to have distributed literature the present paper examines ICTs incorporation from the administration perspective. Specifically, the paper reviewed and expatiate literature on the applicability of ICTs in administration of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) which specifically covers an overview of ICTs application in educational administration and its implication on TVET. Contents of documents (journals articles, reports, conference proceedings, discussion papers) were scrutinized. The scrutiny reveals that e-accounting, e-procurement and Radio Frequency Identification Systems (RFID) are new tools that will be applied in financial, staff and students’ administrative support services for TVET.
