hi

I have asked this question a long time but didnt bother to find answers cos i gained admission to OOU but the faculty did not accept me cos i didnt have the O level requirements to study Accounting( i applied for DE with my ATS-ICAN and i use to be a science student).

Now i Need Answers please. i have my PE 1 in ICAN and thinkin of putting in for DLI after my ACA. pls Bros in the house i need ur guidance/inputs/opinions/suggestion everything. thanks.

Why don't you do the part time program, and try running it at the same time as a full time university programme?
I knew people who were doing Hnd and Bsc in my class, at the same time,
At the end you get 2 degrees,
Focus on your goals, forget about if people will discriminate or not.

Cheers

Yes They Do,

Do they write part time in their certificates?

Yeah

I know that UBA doesnt employ pple wiv part time certificates for some positions.even if the candidate has the degree in the required field.

Just wondering, does the certificate reads the study was on part time

Aloy.Emeka:

I dont know about local schools, but i asked someone in the UK this question when i was contemplating studying for an MBA part time and he said that most of their schools DO NOT WRITE 'PART-TIME' ON THE CERTIFICATES. The certificates they issue are exactly the same ones they will give to the full time students.

Sure, the UK Schools nor elsewhere in Europe will never write such on the certificate, I doubt if that is obtainable in naija either

They don't in Nigeria too but you can't get an
opportunity to serve plus it takes a long while
before you get your certificates.

they do not put part time on certificates in Nigeria, so if you can survivie the interview without them knowing no problem, but der is a limit to the job u desire, as no NYSC means fewer oppurtunities

u can still graduate and fine ur name on the sheet for NYSC or bribe ur way through. But with some of kind of rare skills, no desperate employer asks. I wasn't asked of my O'level sef. I work with computers.

NYSC do give exemption certificate to part-time graduates, though it normally does not come immediately. Most organisations still consider exemption certificates. I don't think part-time is written on certificate anywhere.

Someone told me that NYSC does not issue exemption certificates for part time graduates, pls can someone tell me how far that is true. I finished my Bsc in OOU about 4 years ago but soon left for the UK, which means I have not really used my certificate to seek for employment in Nigeria. I have a friend who is in this same situation, he has just concluded a Master program in one of the UK universities, he is planning to come back to Nigeria to seek for work but ppl are advising him that since he studied for his degree on part time and without the NYSC cert he may find it difficult to get employed.

If they wont write part time on ur certificate,then u dont need to border ursef.All u need do is to distinguish ursef by knowing all that is involve in ur Field of study to make u a guru.All the best.

I think so too

Employers who discriminate against part-time graduates are not worth to be called employers in the real sense of the word.

Good employers know that the world does not stand still. unlike Nigeria, development is at a fast pace all over the world. Advancement means that the methods of study (full time, part time and distance learning) is irrelevant.

Universities and colleges abroad attach the same recognition to their own qualifications regardless of the method of study. Also, employers abroad give the same recognition to qualifications regardless of the method of study.

It is very sad that real advancement is lacking in many facets of Nigeria society.

Yes they do
Not having the NYSC discharge is indeed a stumbling block to your career ascension in this naija.believe me,you just have to be ready for discrimination if you intend to go in for part time in your first degree.

i learnt LASU does not indicate part time on their certs, while LAG does that. not too sure anyway

WORD

mafolayomi:

exactly

No I have not heard of such.

LASU does not write part time on their certificates, neither
do they send names to NYSC for service. NYSC does not give
exemptions to part time graduates. The only way to serve or
get an exemption is to pass through the back-door. Don't let
anyone deceive you.

Also, 98% Nigerian employers believe in your papers "Not What You Can Do".

yes there is

uniben does not write on their certificates

If your friend is up to 30 years of age, he/she has the opportunity to get exemption cert, send me a mail on regulating2003@yahoo.com, would be glad to help out. Later.

Unilag includes distant learning on the Part-time certificate
