<p>This study adopts qualitative research approach to learn how the Nigerian higher education (HE) institutions can involve industry experts to direct learning - an approach that can facilitate productive jobs creation in Nigeria. Higher education (HE) graduates are expected to have acquired the right skills through effective learning that prepares them for productive jobs creation. Previous studies reveal that majority of the Nigerian HE graduates are unemployable, unable to either start small businesses, become self-employed or paid employment due to poor skills development. As a result, a greater number of the HE graduates roam the streets in search for white-collar jobs which are not readily available.</p>
