Questions relating to differences in the resources allocated to technical colleges; and the relationship between the availability and utilization of resources and academic performance in these colleges have remained unanswered. Taking the case of Oyo State, therefore, this study was conducted to examine the variations in the resources allocated to these colleges; and the relationship between the availability and utilization of resources and academic performance in the colleges.
