dc.descriptionDigitalization of education is an ongoing process in Nigeria. It is a programme that is targeted at the expansion of education through the use of digital resources. The digitalization programme in the Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) in Nigeria seems to be facing challenges. This paper examined some of these challenges and concluded that poor funding, shortage of digital personnel, shortage of digital resources, cost of digital resources, electricity, unstable internet, poor training, non-implementation of policies, corruption and the problem of data availability are the problems that have hampered the digitalization of Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) in Nigeria. Based on these problems identified, the paper hereby suggested that the digitalization of Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) require a lot of financial investment, so, the federal and state government should increase the budgetary allocation to Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) for the development of digital education. More digital professionals should be employed and posted to Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) centres to help in the development of digital education. The government should provide adequate digital infrastructure facilities in all the Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) across the country. The government and private institutions should subsidize digital facilities for students and teachers to enable them to integrate fully into digital education.en-US
