Two research questions were raised to guide the study and two corresponding hypotheses were formulated and were also tested at 0.05 level of significance. A survey research design was used for the study. The population of the study comprised 1520 NTS obtained from both public and private universities in Edo State used for this study. A forty-item questionnaire structuredon a five-point rating scale was the instrument used for data collection. The content and face validity of the instrument were carried out by experts in measurement and evaluation and a science educator A reliability coefficient of 0.80 was obtained. A reliability test of the instrument was also conducted and analysed using mean, standard deviation, and Z-test statistics. Findings show that non-teaching staff in Edo State selected universities possess moderate level knowledge of: (1) technological literacy, and (2) nature of technology. The study also revealed that there were high differences in technological skill levels between public and privately owned universities. Implication of the study was highlighted as being of great benefit to science and technology education planners and administrators, technical instructors and students. Based on the findings of the study, appropriate recommendations were made and if adopted it will enhance the level of\u003Cbr>technological literacy among non-teaching staff in universities in Edo State, Nigeria.

Moreover, the growth and development of any nation are hinged on the high technologically skilled labour force. It is the technological skills of the workforce that pave the way for creativity, innovation and higher productivity. Besides, the world today is passing through a lot of changes virtually in every field of human endeavor. These changes are no doubt more conspicuous in science and technology. For instance, the daily necessities, including means of  \ntransportation, architecture, communication, energy, power, computer programming, and other facilities are all closely bound up with science and technology.  \nThis widespread application of technology has brought many benefits. For instance, it does not only save time but also is more efficient to send messages through fax or the internet, to withdraw or transfer money using an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) , or to cook with a microwave oven or with an electromagnetic cooker. On the other hand, technology can have a negative impact on the  \nAfr Educ Res J 122  \nenvironment and human life. For example, chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) , a coolant used in refrigeratorsand air conditioners, has thinned the ozone layer. Nuclear energy can also cause thermal pollution and radiation. Sitting in front of a computer may strain the user’s eyes and lead to isolation from other workers and members of one’s family. The development of technology forges ahead at such a tremendous pace that new products, services, and tools are constantly emerging.
