Trinity Polytechnic is a seed of a dream that God gave to his humble servant 10 years ago as a tool to support the purpose of God in this dispensation and beyond. Incorporated on 31st March, 2014 under the CAMA 2004 as a Company Limited by Guarantee, with RC 1181551; the incorporation came after receiving a letter of no objection from Federal Ministry of Justice.

The resource inspection was executed in the last quarter of 2015. The positive outcome of that inspection empowered the Management of our polytechnic to make sustainable progress to begin academic activities.

It should be noted that as a mark of professionalism and good conscience, management deliberately refused to join the bandwagon in commencing illegal programs when Regulatory Authorities had not given due approval.

At inception, the school had approval for the following programmes for National Diploma (ND):
(a) Accountancy
(b) Business Studies
(c) Computer Engineering
(d) Computer Science
(e) Electrical/Electronic Engineering
(f) Estate Management
(g) Science Laboratory Technology
By the next academic year, we shall obtain approval for more programmes, which will be added to the list of Programmes.
