Abstract

The relationship between the academics and practice has always elicited attention from researchers and practitioners. It is always good to understand if the students are getting the best training by examining the effect training has on graduates produced by such Institutions. This study examined the effect of real estate training on graduates of Rufus Giwa Polytechnic, Owo, Nigeria with a view to improving on the delivery and reception of lectures being taught in the classrooms. The objectives were to determine the techniques used in teaching of real estate management, the teaching environment itself, the motivation enjoyed by the lecturers teaching in tertiary institution and the opinion of the graduates on the applicability of their training to practice. Questionnaires were administered on 60 graduates of the Institution practicing in Ondo State based on five point likert scale and the questionnaires were analysed using frequency table and mean score. It was discovered that  virtually all the courses taught was useful in professional practice but Property Valuation ranked highest with a mean of 4.43 followed by Property management (x=4.18) while some of the graduates were not conversant with Facility management. It was also found that convenience and internet facilities were not adequate for the use of both lecturers and students in the Institution. It was therefore suggested that the graduates should acquaint themselves with all aspects of the profession while convenience and Internet facilities be made available in the institution for both lecturers and students.
