This study was carried to investigate the relationship between utilization of automobile workshop resources and students’ academic performance in automobile technology in Colleges of Education (Technical) in Nigeria. One research question was raised and one hypothesis formulated to guide the study. The hypothesis formulated was tested at .05 level of significance. Correlational research design was adopted for the study and the entire population of 24 respondents which was purposively selected from the two institutions used for the study was used. Due to relatively small size of the population, there was no sampling; therefore the population was used as sample. The instruments used for the study; was a checklist on automobile technology from NCCE minimum standard that was adapted as a questionnaire titled ‘’UAWRCSAPENT’’ and a performance test titled ‘’ATPT’’ were used for data collection. The instruments were face and content validated by three experts. The reliability of the instruments were established using test-retest that yielded a reliability coefficient ( r ) of 0.81. Trained research assistants were used to administer the instruments and data obtained were analysed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient to answer the research question and the findings revealed that there is a weak relationship between utilization of automobile workshop resources and students’ academic performance. While the hypothesis tested showed that there is no significant relationship between utilization of automobile workshop resources and students’ academic performance in automobile technology in Colleges of education (Technical) in Nigeria, based on the findings of the study, a conclusion was drawn and the recommendations was made that; automobile workshop resources should be adequate to take the numbers of students that are enrolled for the programme, among others.
