The use of Artificial Intelligence technology in education has become an increasingly popular topic in recent years. AI offers a lot of potential to enhance students' learning experiences, assist teachers in delivering more effective instruction, and even identify learning issues that may go unnoticed by humans. “Technical education is the kind of training that concerns a particular aspect of science, occupation or profession which have both theoretical and practical instructions that are given to those who are going to be employed in commerce and industry using tools and machinery for the operation, production, preservation and distribution of goods and services.” Technical education has suffered neglect for many years. This could be the main reason why Africa is still backward technologically. The main objective of this research is to identify and analyze how Artificial Intelligence can be used to enhance the quality of learning, skill development, and the relevance of technical education programs. The primary contribution of this research is to provide a deeper understanding of the role of Artificial Intelligence in technical education and to provide a framework that can be used as a guide in implementing Artificial Intelligence in this context. It is expected that this research will assist educators and decision-makers in effectively harnessing Artificial Intelligence to improve learning, skills, and the preparation of vocational students for the ever-evolving workforce.
