Business Education is one of the disciplines designed to equip students with requisite skills for self-employment and one of the major tools used for this great assignment is the use of ICT tools such as internet, data base management or spreadsheet applications etc, However, adequate attention has not been given to the use of ICT skills in teaching and learning of business education courses by Business educators at the College of Education level in Edo and Delta States, especially in handling the vast arrays of ICT tools and facilities available to them.
