orohbiro: If you see any opportunity to make use of your certificate for a nice paying job, won't you? We all understand that education in this country is messed up already, but we still have hope that one day the certificate can still be useful. Either to use it to secure a job or leave the country via scholarship. Don't discourage people abeg 3 Likes |

Ejlove4u: If both qualifications are equivalent (Which they ought to be), then the tertiary institution attended shouldn't matter... The company is supposed to test all of them, and judge by their overall performances both in written and oral assessments. Besides, finishing from a university is not even the final stage of education. Learning is a continuum. This nation is just backward in everything! Sigh! 2 Likes |

[quote author=orohbiro post=105138495]Education na scam business is the way just finish secondary school get sense every nothing go fall into place. Though am a graduate. It depends on your grade and discipline. Nothing like a scam. Study any medical course and have rest of mind. I pick up an employment when I was still serving. Nothing like having a secured job. Go into business in Nigeria and understand what I'm saying. Only taxes will send you to an early grave |

I don't believe in this dichotomy.i will tell u there are many Bsc holders with Blockheads.what matters most is what u can offer.i am an HND holder in engineering. I have rejected more than 4jobs offers from big organisations. They negotiate pay whenever I go for interview as citing my CV.my brother and sister u need to be have skills to market so u will be hot cake.Even though am currently managing one of the biggest multinationals with a good pay ,am still hoping to go higher 2 Likes |

OP is actually the HND holder here for him not to understand that a degree is different from diploma. In the advance World diploma is still Diploma, no matter how you coin it, call it higher, lower, college, or Pro Diploma, it's still Diploma in advance countries. And its not possible to compare degree and diploma. Don't waste your time mentioning me, just go and get a degree. I already know you are brilliant, you don't need to tell me. 7 Likes |

I had a roommate in university who had OND but decided to write JAMB and gain admission to the university. This guy made a First Class in Civil Engineering. This goes to void the narration that polytechnic graduates are not sound. During the NYSC orientation camp, I saw university graduates who were not sound and I also saw polytechnic graduates who were not sound. If you are dull, you are dull. So whether you attend university or polytechnic, it has nothing to do with the institution. 9 Likes |

Elsueno:please, you people should stop saying there are too many graduates, simply say there is no job creation. We still need more graduates in Nigeria. The literacy level is still very low in Nigeria. Graduates are not enough, government need to create jobs and enabling environment for labour capital to flourish. 1 Like 1 Share |

Someone once told me that the reason why people discriminate is because even the cut off to get admission into the polytechnic is lesser than that of an average university. Why will I compare University graduates with polytechnic graduates. They are not same. I don't just understand this discrimination. Lot of HND grads are far better than university graduates and vice versa. If I could remember, Government don remove this dichotomy more than 5 times but the thing still dey there. Private sectors hate to hear the word polytechnic. It's only government jobs that do not discriminate[/quote] 1 Like |

Let's be honest. To get into polytechnic is far easier. With low cut off and all. They both can't be the same. If polytechnic don't offer postgraduate degrees, you guys should forget it. You all should go do small research, why was polytechnics established. 3 Likes |

▶️▶️▶️▶️▶️▶️▶️▶️ ❌❌❌◀️◀️◀️◀️◀️◀️◀️ On its own, HND no be bad thing. The problem arise when people want to equate it with BSc degree. The founding fathers knew why they made entry requirements for polytechnics to be lower than for universities. Even entry point into Civil service for HND holders was 07 & 08 for BSc. Overnight, politicians who are mostly HND holders want to equalize them. ❌❌❌ It can NEVER happen❗️❗️ 3 Likes |

I am a product of both system, I know what each is worth. I recently got Both results evaluated by WES and the HND that is not respected here is evaluated to be Equivalent to Bachelors degree in the United States and accorded all privileges of a Bachelors degree. I think the government should be serious about the removal of the dichotomy. The Polytechnic curriculum can stand shoulder to shoulder with any University Curriculum ( My belief anyway). I had to go get the Bachelors because my professional body would not register an HND holder to the top cadre of the profession. |
