Abstract: The educational system of many nations is undergoing noteworthy changes with the implementation of policies and instructional strategies that will help the future workforce and learners to acquire 21st-century skills. There seems to be a paucity of pedagogical modules to guide university administrators in implementing it in the training of their lecturers. Therefore, this study focused on the Development of a Pedagogical Capacity Training Module for Enhancing Lecturers' Skills for Effective Curriculum Implementation. A three-round Modified Delphi method was used to develop the Pedagogical Capacity Training Module for Enhancing Lecturers' Skills for Effective Curriculum Implementation. For the development of the module, ten (10) experts were recruited from the field of Science Education, and curriculum development and planning with a minimum rank of Senior Lecturer from the Federal University of Technology, Minna, and participated in the study. Mean experts’ consensus was ensured using Content Validity Ratio Index (CVRi), Item Content Validity Index (I-CVI), and Scale Content Validity Index (S-CVI). The findings show that experts’ consensus was attained, and the module has good content validity. The findings also indicate that all the phases, elements, and items for module validation have CVRi of greater than 0.5 and therefore are very appropriate, ensuring the attainment of experts’ consensus. It was confirmed from the computation that all the phases, elements, and items for module validation have I-CVI of >.70 and Scale Content Validity Index (S-CVI) of 0.81, 0.89, and 0.90 for the phases, elements and items used in developing the module, respectively. It was concluded that the general outlook of the module is appropriate and can be used for the training. Given the findings of this study, it is recommended that the developed Pedagogical Capacity Training Module should be implemented with University and Colleges of Education lecturers and that lecturers should be encouraged to implement the Pedagogical Module in their classroom instruction.
