NOTE

SKILL ACQUISITION AND EMPOWERMENT

Skill acquisition is when we submit ourselves to be taught a skill by a master or teacher for future purpose.

 

Areas where one could acquire skills

  1. Catering.
  2. Tailoring.
  3. Hair styling and cosmetology.
  4. Auto-servicing (mechanic)
  5. ICT
  6. Manufacturing.
  7. Marketing.
  8. Carpentry.
  9. Electronic repair.

Students can acquire these skills while still in school as it has no hindrances to academics in any form. It helps the child to acquire skills while he/she is still schooling for future self dependence.

 

Examples of biblical characters who acquired skills:

  1. Jesus the carpenter’s son: Jesus acquired the skill of carpentry from his father David which he practiced for thirty years until he was  fully involve in the work of ministry. He even assisted his mother Mary financially with the carpentry work after the demise of his father.
  1. The apostles; Simon Peter, Andrew, James and John as fishermen: The apostles acquired fishing skills, they were not lazy and their handwork in fishery transcended into fishing for men instead of fish after their individual encounter with Jesus.
  1. Dorcas the dress maker (Acts 9:36-43): Dorcas was skillful in dress making and her good work and diligence spoke for her at her death.
  1. Paul the tent maker (Acts 18;3):  Paul was not a lazy apostle. He was by profession a lawyer and after he dropped his profession for the sake of the gospel, he learnt making tent as an additional skill which helped him gain access to some people that ordinarily he wouldn’t have been able to penetrate.
