The FMOH has discharged ALL the remaining Ebola contacts under follow up in both Lagos and PH. There are NO cases in the isolation centers. Ebola has been successfully contained in Nigeria. We need to remain extremely vigilant and follow strict hygienic practices. Keep safe, Wash your hands regularly.

Here we go again Nigerians; hustling to get lots of certificates to get the dream job. Stop !!! Understand that It's not about the certificates. it's about the knowledge and what you can do with it without necessarily having a job |

Its very educative, I'm currently running two courses @ d moment. |
Re: Edx - An Educative Online Program by EmoBoy(m): 8:15pm On Sep 25, 2014 |
I use coursera. The reasons most nigeria won't patronise such open educational resources is the cost of internet. A single course consumes about 2 gb of data and the course stretches over a month, so a nigerian student or education enthusiast has to spend about 5 to 8k for data subscription. Many nigerians find this discouraging, especially the students. 4 Likes |

olycholy: true that. if it started on the 15th, to get a verified certificate, you will need to register early i believe. maybe within 3 weeks or so but it varies from course to course. some courses also have multiple offerings a year, so if you miss this just look out for the next one. |

keypad1: is it possible ro do mba ? not to my knowledge. you can take individual courses or even a group of courses in different tracks - eg finance etc but you wont get a degree off of it. If you want an MBA online, you will have to register in one of those online universities eg phoenix or walden etc. I dont know how prestigious these institutions are and it will cost you some money. But you can definitely take MBA type courses on coursera or edx. |

Internet data not the problem. What's discouraging is labour market. Will the certificate be recognized ? |

Signed up for cs50 and two other courses early this year. Have since stopped though. Still hoping to continue and complete the courses before the year runs out sha. For those interested in Intro. to Comp. Sci. I (cs50), you'll love (the approach of) the lecturer -- David J. Malan. |
