Below is the list of all the Polytechnics accredited by the certificates such as the National Diploma (ND) and Higher National Diploma (HND). The products of these institutions will have entry-level employment skills to function as technicians, higher professionals, depending on the level of training, in their fields of specialization and an ND/HND hold can move to a university to obtain a BSC degree.

A polytechnic may also be involved in applied research. The minimum entry requirement is the SSSC/GCE O’Level with credit passes in at least five subjects relevant to the Course or their equivalents and UTME score of  between 100-170.

 There were three Polytechnics in Delta State, Nigeria, all established on 12 November 2002, located in Ogwashi-Uku (Aniocha South Local Government Area), Ozoro (Isoko North Local Government Area), and Otefe-Oghara, Oghara (Ethiope West Local Government Area). 

However, the Polytechnic that was in Ozoro has been transformed into a University by the state government.

The Government of Delta State reached an understanding with the University of Westminster, London to assist in management and technical support for the institutions. The institutions are centres of excellence in Agriculture, Computing and Information Technology, Fashion Design and Arts and Sports. Besides their primary areas of specialization, all students are trained in Computing and Information Technology as well as business and entrepreneurship.
