Executive Secretary of the NBTE, Idris Bugaje disclosed this in an issued statement in Kaduna.
Bugaje said that he led a Nigerian delegation to the Office of Vocational Training and Employment Promotion, Casablanca, Morocco, to understudy the Moroccan vocational training centres.
He said that the centres, located across Morocco, provided expert skilled workers for Morocco as well as those targeted for export to other countries from the Kingdom, describing the Moroccan skills model as very good, especially for sub tertiary training.
The executive secretary explained that the country took their young people at the age of 15 through skills and vocational training programmes, adding that within four to six years, the skilled youths were being exported to Europe and other parts of the world, thereby serving as a huge source of foreign exchange to Morocco.
According to Bugaje, Nigeria can also leverage on its large population of the youth, give them skills, and export them across the world and in the long run, bring foreign exchange to the country.
