In the year 2010, a new course [Family Life and Emerging Health Issues (FLEHI)with the course code GSE 124 was introduced in Federal College of Education (Technical), Umunze. Two facilitators were nominated from each school of the college and a two-day step-down workshop organized for them. It is hoped that the step-down workshop would equip the facilitators with the necessary tools and knowledge on the new course. This paper thus discusses the facilitators' experience and challenges through the two years of teaching FLEHI. It also examines the objectives of and reaction to the FLEHI from both facilitators and parents. It is hoped that the experience of the facilitators will be helpful in improving the teaching and learning of FLEHI in Federal College of Education (Technical), Umunze.
