    abstract = {The study determined social networking skills
needed by vocational and technical education students for
enterprise management in low and middle income
countries. The study adopted a descriptive survey design
and the population for the study was 101 subjects
comprising 65 urban and 36 rural enterprise managers
randomly selected within the study area. The instrument
used for data collection was a structured questionnaire
developed by the researchers. The internal consistency of
the questionnaire items was determined using Cronbach
alpha reliability method and reliability coefficient value
of 0.89 was obtained. Every researcher was involved in
the administration and collection of instruments. Data
collected were analyzed using Mean and standard
deviation for answering research questions while t-test
was employed to test the null hypothesis formulated at
0.05 level of significance with the aid of Statistical
Package for Social Science (SPSS). Data analyzed
revealed that all the social networking skills are needed by
students for enterprise management. Furthermore, the
findings on hypothesis tested revealed that there was no
significant difference between the mean responses of the
respondents on social networking skills needed by
vocational and technical education students for enterprise
management in low and middle income countries.
Recommendations include that all the skills determined
should be included into the entrepreneurial programme of
Nigerian universities.}
