The world has gone beyond paper qualification. That said, if I am an employer, I would employ sumone who gets the job done and not sumone who has the paper qualification...

What i know is that a Petroleum Engineering student in Unilag is nowhere near a student of the same course in PTI warri.

Many have done things you'd never imagine just to live through each passing day. The issue of dichotomy between HND and BSC shouldn't way anyone down or make the other think and believe he/she is better and more favoured.

Most firms and government bodies might employ and promote people with BSC because there has been this frame of mind built round the two certs and not that the individuals involved cannot do the same job well enough. When you say that Poly graduates are Technicians (we know) but what about courses like, Accounting, Pub. Admin, Mass communication, and does it mean that there're Technicians and engineers in Architecture, Building tech in fact the whole school of environmental.

Not withstanding, many judge their dichotomy in terms of Jamb cut-off mark (that doesn't mean that someone who is in the Poly can't make such scores and better) what is big between 200 and 180 as cut-off marks (even at times Universities take it down to 180 due to mass failure in Jamb), I can rewrite next year and do better but I decided to follow the other way.

In this present time where unemployment is the order of the day, and the society is calling for skill acquisition, which cert is more favoured. Now a HND holder is qualified and can still work in that same firm he was rejected at and can also survive on his own due the skill acquired in school. Even in with OND, my friend is working in a bank and furthering his education through weekend program. I myself, as an Architectural student, I've made so many designs and am handling some sites as of now (with OND).

So please my dearest Nairaland siblings, in my own opinion, both certs does not guarantee a better future or make you a hotter cake but it sharpens your way to greatness through what you've done with it not what it has done for you.

[size=18pt]Infact, am tired of hearing about this B.sc&hnd whatever, this discrimination is damn too much, after spending 2yrs for your National Diploma, 1solid year for Industrial Training, and another 2yrs for HND, + additional 1yr strike action, making 6solid yrs, and people will still be condemning such result, I think this yeye government we having should scrap POLYTECNICS, so, this discrimination will stop.

Dont mind them,they keeps creating thread to console one another,they wont read enough to pass UME,post UME and later they would come here to defend POLY as if employers are fool
I see no reason to end up in POLY if you read very well
the fact still remains polytechnic are for inferior students

Waste of time and resources. After obtaining GCSE, it only takes TWO YEARS to earn HND in the UK, explaining why it's not considered an equivalent of a UK degree except in universities like LONDON MET, Uni of East London, Sunderland, etc., where TESCO CLUBCARD POINTS (lol) would do.

Stop whinging, Nigerian educational institutions need to wise up and review their curricula that aren't fit for purpose in the 21st Century CE.

The world has not gone beyond paper qualifications. It is still a prerequisite and regulatory requirement to getting some jobs in countries where everything works.

seanblaise:

By saying the world has gone beyond Paper qualification, I meant developed countries no longer look at what you read while in skul...If ur certificate says you are an Architect, then design a building for us....that's now the real deal....Are we on the same page?
