Logit regression model analysis, z-test and descriptive statistics involving the use of frequency tables and percentages were used to analyze the data collected from the field. The results obtained revealed that nomads socio-economic characteristics like age (.008), educational level(.001) and livestock rearing experience(.004) were significant to nomads participation and adoption of nomadic education package at 1% percent level of probability. Nomadic Education Programme package technological characteristics such as relative advantage (.033), affordability (.020), compatibility (.011) and complexity (.012) were significant to nomads participation and adoption of Nomadic Education package at 5% level of probability in the study area. The results of the z-test statistic analysis on the impact of adoption of Nomadic Education Programme package on the nomads „employment opportunity revealed that (z-cal-2.67) was higher than (Z=1.96) at 0.05% level of probability, indicating that there is significant difference in rural employment opportunity between the nomads within and outside the grazing reserves nomadic education centers in the North West zone of Nigeria. The major constraints faced by the nomads within the grazing reserves nomadic education centers are poor water retention by the earth dams beyond the month of March (81.81%) and inadequate vocational skills teaching aids (72.72 among others.
