Hello,

Some few days ago, my friend was telling me that he read in internet that NUC come-up with new policy that in all Nigerian universities (that) duration of education courses, i.e BA Ed, BSc Ed, BEd, BEd Tech, etc is extended from its initial four years duration to five years. That's a teaching paractice year is added. Please, who read or heard this also because I flatly fail to make up any proof of the issue after spending ages searching on webs.

Thanks for your kind help.

I hope this is a rumor

i sincerely hope this is a rumor, madness, After that then NYSC?, rubbish

i heard this 2years ago.i dont think its gonna work anyway.

actually, i saw it on headline but did not read it

In order for Nigeria to have the best educational system in the world like singapore it would need to recruit the best students to teach our kids, this would also solve the issue of unemployment.

instead of thinking of soving unemployment wahala, na school years dem wan extend.

na craze d worry them

how and when ?

.

The duration of courses will not fix the quality of our graduates. I spent 5 years in a Nigeria university to pick up a certificate which I continue to regret for time wasted. Adding 5 more years would not have made any difference in the quality of education I received.

I applaud it because that extra year won't be spent in the classroom but on the field, It's like clinicals in nursing (I hope that clinicals are included in nursing).
U won't want ur nurse to be working on u without having spent some time practicing.
Why won't u want ur child's teacher to have experience dealing with children in the classroom?

I am all for it.

why cant they make it 3 years + 1year teaching practise

why do you all cry about it. is it just starting or this is the first you are hearing that course duration goes for 5years. well, y not trying going to school in lautech where all course goes for 5yrs even accounting course.

so go get something doing than complaining and lazying around

HABA
why the complain??
when others are lobbying for their course to be made 5yrs so that they can be regarded as a professional course
that means they will attain higher level in civil service and get better grade level

ohh booyyy, u know the politics wey dey for this country oooooo

pray education get that 5yrs so that teachers will start getting their rewards here on earth

THOUGH SOME ARE ALREADY MAKING SURE OF THAT WITH THE EXORBITANT PRICES OF HAND OUTS AND TEXT BOOK

Pls they should not, ooo

It's actually true and good

na wah ooooooooooooooo, that is kind of too much , they wan dey compete with lawyers and doctors be that oooo,na wah but is that the best way to solve problemmmmmmmmm

members of NUC board should have a rethink. Courses we offer for four(4) years - if not more - are offered for two(2) years in US and they are thinking of making it Five years

Sometimes i wonder if Nigerians have the same brains with the rest of the people in the developed world?

hey nairalanders,i just want u to notify me of any infomation on university of sokoto.idont know what else to do.contact me on 08072427340.thanks

wether extended or not all i no is dat 5 year duration is not the next solution to our education problem

why can't they make it 13 yrs, madness!! there is always an atom of madness in black race. especially we Nigerian. I have spent 4 yrs in Yaba tech, still in HND1.

Why did I get an email alert when I never responded to this topic, prior to this?
