Abstract
The study identified the practical skills expected of block laying, brick laying and concreting students in technical colleges in Rivers State, Nigeria. The population of the study consisted of 80 respondents, comprising of 70 registered builders from the ministry of works and housing and 10 block laying, brick laying and concreting teachers of the three National Board for Technical Education NBTE accredited technical colleges in Rivers State offering the course.

An instrument was developed and validated by experts subsequently it was used by the researchers to obtain information from the respondents. Mean and the standard deviation were used to analyse the research question, while t test was used to test the hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed a 44 item practical skills list expected of students of block laying, brick laying and concreting in technical colleges in Rivers State. It was also found that there is no significant difference in the mean response of technical teachers and registered builders in block laying, brick laying and concreting.
