The Federal Polytechnic, Ado-Ekiti is one of the second-generation Polytechnics established by law, through Decree No. 33 of July, 1979. It was first founded in 1977 as a College of Technology in Jos, Plateau State and later that year moved to Akure, Ondo State by the then Federal Military Government.
In
line with the harmonization of all Federal Government owned Polytechnics, it
was translated from a College of Technology into a full-fledged Polytechnic by
decree No. 33 of July, 1979.
By
1982 and in order to pave way for the founding of the Federal University of
Technology on its Campus in Akure, the Polytechnic was again relocated, for the
final time, to Ado-Ekiti. The relocation process was however completed only in
1986.
The
Polytechnic has grown to become one of the nation's best entrepreneurial and
technical Institution. The Polytechnic, which was established to train middle
and high level manpower for the Nigerian economy, offers both National and
Higher National Diploma (ND & HND) programmes duly accredited by the
National Board for Technical Education (NBTE).
