😂😂 that certificate will never be useful. I had it in 2016 when I was in 100 level, one lawyer and his crew posing as human rights activists, used it to inspire self confidence in us. Telling us to present it anytime police arrests or harrases us. 😂
Now, u be the judge, will the certificate ever be useful?

In my 100L we had same goons, posing as UN ambassadors

During my service year, I received an NCCF certificate, still not sure what to do with the certificate because I don't intend to be a Pastor.

lol. They cashed out on our ignorance. Funny enough, you will never see final Year students attending such programmes. They will just hiss and .

APC hip certificate

NIM
Our MBBS is just the primary qualification required...to move up the ladder there you need to enroll in many of their own certified programs.
And bear in mind that MBBS took 6-8yrs of someone life to obtain.

One thing about IT is its strictly by skill or know-how, not by degree. You can see a skilled developer that can hack the backend of a website with just SSCE cert.

Interestingly.

Likewise, if a foreign trained doctor (regardless of the country) wants to practice in Nigeria, they'd need to some Nigerian exams as well. That's the standard in most countries. As for IT; yes, it's skill based but many Nigerians got into that field by studying Computer Science or Engineering. The school might not have given them all the skills they need to thrive in the IT world but the degree was an eye opener for them; it gave them the foundation. Many people have moved to Canada and with their French language degrees. A lot of people from that same Nigeria are working as professionals outside the country with thier Nigerian degrees.

My point is, individual experiences differ. Your university degree might not be useful to you (not necessarily your fault), but that doesn't make universities degrees generally useless. It gives some people the foundation to build on. The issue is when you expect that having one should automatically make life easier for you. Well, that's not the case even in the Western world. While Schools in the West are obviously far better than what you have in Nigeria, the students still succeed by self development. The schools mostly provide the enabling environment for them.

I know education is not so great in Nigeria, but those who couldn't make anything out of the little the system can offer should not discourage those who are willing to give it a go. A hungry man does not reject a plate of food cause it's not big enough to satisfy him. Unless you have plans of studying abroad, it would be shameful not to strive for a degree on the grounds that it's not good enough.

Just an opinion.

I don't think any cert is utterly useless, as one needs one cert to get another.

Is there anything like a Useless Certificate? 🤨😒

Well, I when I won an AKPU competition in 2012.

I Finished 17 Akpus with Hot Ogbonor soup, under 4mins. 😊😎

Certificate of training on how to build fuelless generator

Hmmm

I won't blame those saying junior waec.....

I blame junior waec for not falling their hands.....

INEC & APC Certificate

Many... too many Nigerians have acquired legit certificates that are now useless.
How can you spend years acquiring BSc, MSc only to end up as online wig sellers, makeup artist, doing POS business and other petty hustles?

Education is NOT a scam though

Nigeria needs urgent surgery!

What's tha business?

Naija degree mah
