This chapter briefly describes the challenges faced by the Nigerian education system as from 1983 after it had performed well between 1960 and 1980. It follows this description with the discussion of the innovative and ingenious educational devise that kept about one third of the number of school age children and youths in school between 1990 and the early part of the 21st century. That innovative educational sub-system was known as non-formal education for the Girl-Child, the out-of-school boy and Quranic school learners and it was developed, nurtured and implemented by academic personnel drawn from the eight existing university departments of adult education in Nigeria at the time. The chapter finally discusses how these departments of adult education worked for the establishment of national structures of adult education which ultimately came to promote both the visibility and popularisation of the modern practice of adult education in Nigeria from the 1980s.

With the implementation of the redesigned NCATE standards in 1985, schools, colleges, and departments of education became responsible for providing assistance to beginning educational professionals. Much attention has been given to identifying and providing activities that facilitate the entrance of new teacher education graduates into the teaching profession. Less attention has been given to issues related to the professional induction of other beginning educational professionals, especially school administrators. This article summarizes some of the pertinent background regarding the professional induction needs of beginning school administrators and describes a professional induction project initiated by Arkansas State University.
