The accolades from the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) have underscored IMT's commitment to academic excellence. The NBTE, established to address various aspects of educational enhancement, has consistently regarded IMT with high esteem. The board's functions include expanding educational facilities to ensure equitable access to education across the nation, aligning general education content with socio-economic needs, and contributing to technological education to meet the demands of the economy.
IMT's journey to prominence began gaining momentum in 2016, gradually moving from the periphery of 29th position prio to 2016 in the forefront of educational institutions. The institute's remarkable rise saw it ascend to the 7th position in the NBTE ranking table by 2018, surpassing over 100 other Polytechnics. This impressive achievement has been sustained for nearly five years, a testament to IMT's enduring dedication to academic growth and innovation.
A key factor in IMT's ongoing success has been its emphasis on infrastructure improvement and academic development. The institute's commitment to fostering an environment conducive to learning has garnered recognition not only within Nigeria but also on a global scale. Enugu State has remained prominently positioned on the world education map, thanks to IMT's unwavering contributions over the past decade.
Naija Media Trends, in its report, has indicated that IMT is poised to ascend to the coveted first position in the upcoming NBTE ranking exercise. This prediction underscores IMT's relentless pursuit of excellence and its determination to raise the bar in the field of education.
As IMT continues to shine on the national and international stage, its impact on Enugu State and Nigeria as a whole remains significant. The institute's dedication to education, technological progress, and academic advancement has solidified its reputation as a beacon of learning and innovation.
