kovak:You don't know what you are writing. stop this fallacy. who told you it's the same module?. i'v lectured in a polytechnic before moving to the university, so don't spew out what you have no idea about because you want to prove a point...we must learn to accept the truth about the current situation. its not discrimination but the right thing. if they are equated then there will be no need for universities as any body could take the back door to acquire the HND and still be placed at par with a degree holder...the high time we accept our diffrent roles and position in the workforce the better..if you want to be placed at par with degree holders its better you enroll for conversion courses instead of back door approach...these two types of institutions play different roles as they are being supervised by NUC (Universities) and NABTEB (Polytechnics). 1 Like |

eddieo: Once you have HND/BSC in any course you can do any Professional Masters like MSW MMP, Mpp, MBA, MBF etc they never lead to PhD or earn you any thing not even Job. You may be lucky with MBA if you join MBA associations, but not academic Masters like Msc,Meng or MA that can lead you to PhD. Instead of wasting your time, go straight now for HND accountancy or Bsc Accounting then ICAN. Just go for ICAN. Most Diplomas and PGD that are non academics are just mere proficiency certificate of no value. Laboratory technician work or ND in LT is for lab far away from acc. 1 Like |

mikedimeji: . Guy! the simple fact is that you cannot generalize that HND graduates are suffering from inferiority complex simply because those in your social terrain are suffering from it. A further inquisition from a seasoned psychologist would further deepen your knowledge that people with certain type of personalities and backgrounds are susceptible to low self-esteem. Or have you not seen one of the most brilliant students who was suffering from inferiority complex in your undergraduate days? For your information, the Senior Manager that I worked with before the latest merger and take-over was an HND holder with RMs who were degree holders under his supervision and he was performing excellently well. I am not here to argue, but a simple research before the latest merger and acquition in banking industries would further butress my claim that some banks accept both HND and BSc as an Executive Trainee. Without any iota of doubt, your paradigm would be difficult to change from the way you address your point here. So, some Nigerians should be feeling like second-class citizens because they are HND graduate? It is ironical to know that Aregbesola and other governors that are HND holders are feeling like second-class citizens among their contemporaries. Also, be assured that what you will be doing may not even has anything to do with your field of study when gainfully employed: a further clarification from banking industry will further corroborate this claim. It is high time the employers of labour concentrates on skills, talents, and productivity and desist from "certificate whorshipping". God bless Nigeria! 4 Likes 1 Share |

Sagamite: But seriously dude, I think the disparagement against the polytechnic holders is rather too much and unfair. My grievance is that the Nigerian education system is faulty and as such, we churn out mediocre workforce. Whether it is university or polytechnic graduates. More so, they both complete similar modules (course content)-at least I can safely say that for management science courses like accountancy, Banking and Finance, etc. If this be the case, why discriminate one against the other? The system needs an overhaul. 3 Likes |

kovak: Yep. I agree. That said, the most brilliant Nigerian students (who are very few) are likely to be found in Universities, only far fewer would be seen in Polys, hence why companies might prefer the University students for the very few jobs in the economy. That said, majority of Nigerian students, both Uni and Poly ones, are academic and personal development disasters. Very much evidenced on NL. 1 Like |

The fact dat most companies prefer Universities graduate to Polytechnic graduates does not make dem better, jst dat the problem is frm d system... Ppl now pay little or no attention to Polytechnic Education simply because most of our polytechnics ar now dilapidated due to poor funding and no good regulating body.... The afore-stated point is the main cause y polytechnics have to bring their cut off mark so low as it is considered as second choice.... Apart frm the low cut off marks, unqualified persons as Rectors, little or no professors and so on and so forth. You do university graduates alwz get so mad and start opening their mouth removin all doubts each time dis issue of bridging the gap btw HND and Bsc is being raised.. Is it dat dey ar afraid of the challenges they wld face frm their HND counterpart despite the discrimination ?.... Universities stdnts are neva lik, evn if FG equate both Bsc/HND, we wld stil prove to dem dat dey ar far behind us.... So the question is, if Polytechnic education is reviewed and professors are deployed and its being standardized, wld u be able to prove ur HND counterpart in the same field dat u ar beta and can outsmart dem ? |

My person stop worrying urself over nothing. Polytechnic and university are two different institutions issuing different certificate, bachelor and Diploma whether higher or whatever. No body is discriminating any body rather HND holders are the one causing problem for themselves. There's no where it's been stated that HND is equivalent to Bsc no where in the world. There are act that establishes this institutions, get one ans read then u will understand that Bsc and HND are not in any way equivalent. Am neither for nor against. Have u asked urself why HND holders do not go beyond level 14 in their various places of works. Pls be guided |

(Its a pity) i want to believe you were not trying to bring UTME as a body under NUC but you meant to say something else but typo error wont allow you..i wont be surprised if you say JAMB which conducts UTME is a body under NUC (hmmm). Well, you can continue with your rantings and expose ur lack of depth in understanding what im saying. the fact i made a mistake to type NABTEB instead of NBTE which i accepted it was error shouldnt be an issue you should dwell on..i still want to ask you under which supervisory/regulatory body does NABTEB fall into? i guess its still NBTE...stop looking for cheap points and accept the reality about polytechnic education..you are only good in pointing out mistakes and nothing more but your content is empty in ur argument..why not dwell on the argument instead of typo error. You are not a product of any university (national business and technical examinations board falls undre NBTE-national board for technical education which supervises technicalsecondary and post secondary education and source of funding for polytechnics)..you know the point im trying t make but you decided to shy away from it because of your inferiority complex. The difference between YoU and I is that as a Degree holder we accept it when we make mistakes and humbly correct such mistakes but as for HND you guys will never accept your mistakes to the extent of trying to push the Nigerian govt to commit blunder in equating the HND and Degree certificate when you guys know the truth. if you are a product of the university you ll not dissipate so much energy in bending the truth about the position of polytechnics in the country just like how other misinformed HND holders are doing..Dude you have never in your life smelt the four walls of a university. As at october 31 2012 you were asking for help on industrial training for a year (this covers 2013) after ur ND program at fed poly OFFA. .when calculated till date u should be rounding off HND 1 now. so which time did u attend university when u have not yet graduated from d polytechnic?. this is d link https://www.nairaland.com/1089526/ . i recommend PGD for you when u are done wt ur HND or better still apply for DE if you want to feel among and stop claiming what you were never. 1 Like |

The thing is poly grads and Uni grads should be given the chance to ascertain their credibility,however equating the certificates will not be okay because the structure of university n poly is different for example in poly u dont have Cgpa i.e cumulative grade point average from 100level to 400level(8semesters) in poly u can get a lower credit result in nd and get an upper in hnd,i believe they are different u cant equate them seriously those guys in 200level direct entry from poly can verify. 2 Likes |
