What have you been doing since you graduated?
I don't know of any electrical engineering company that would be particular about grades in today's Nigeria.

@Ajalenkoko, pls kindly help on this.PLS ROOM WAT ARE THOSE TYPE OF ELECTRONICS TEXT BOOK THAT I CAN READ AND HELP ME ALOT TO START DEVELOPING SOME PROJECT ON MY OWN AND WHERE I CAN GET CIRCUIT DIAGRAM TO START PRACTICING PLS I MEAN SMALL PROJECT MAY LIKE FM, LIGHT DIMMER, PHOTO CELL SWICTH, AND SOME OTHER CIRCUIT DIAGRAM. Pls pls pls help help waiting for your reply room

There used to be a magazine available in Nigeria many years ago. It was called Practical Electronics. If I remember correctly, it was published by a U.K company. It was quite a good publication, filled with just the types of projects that you described that one could rreally sink their teeth into and get their hands dirty on. It had projects at many different proficiency levels; from beginner to intermediate, all the way up to advanced.

I don't know if new editions are still available. If they are, try to buy them regularly. If not, try to get your hands on some old editions. You might serendipitously stumble across some editions if you go browsing through the collections of those folks who sell old books and magazines on the roadside throughout Nigeria.

Good luck.

In these days of Internet, lots of resources abound. Circuit Cellar is one magazine I read a lot during my postgrad and early career, and it even has a student subscription. That poster can check here for more detail.

As per textbooks, I can only recommend one, which I have found to be a great resource. The Art of Electronics, by Horowitz and Hill. I'm sure free PDF downloads are available on RapidShare.

I have a vast knowledge on industrial electrical controls using relay logics. Now I would love to learn how to implement most of those my controls using PLCs. I wouldn't want where I will waste anytime on those fundermentals like number systems and the likes. Rather, I want where I would start the programming immediately. I would also prefer to come the some of my relay logic designs for them to be converted into PLC ladders. I would also prefer a weekend arrangement.

Pls if anyone knows where I can get this service and at an affordable rate should pls drop the contact for me here so that I can make enquires. Pls I need experts not 'leaners' who claim they know it all only for you to discorver that they know nothing after you must have committed your money. Thanks and god bless us.

I could probably assist you with this. Unfortunately, I am not in-country at the moment. If possible, send me a sample of the relay logic that you would like to convert. I will look at them and we'll go from there. Send sample(s) to alkhwarizmi1968 at yahoo pt com.

I looked at the Circuit Cellar Website. It's probably a good magazine for engineers who are interested in embedded systems design. The OP can, if he wishes, visit said Website regularly in addition to the Website for Practical Electronics located at www.epemag3.com

Is that a part time OND or HND? If you are already doing that, why do you need to do C&G?
Re: Electrical Engineering: Aspirants and Practitioners by Okonkwosamuel(m): 4:13am On Dec 08, 2011
OND PART-TIME. I dont really have much info about the city and guild but from my findings, is a technical base professional exam body.
Re: Electrical Engineering: Aspirants and Practitioners by Nobody: 9:42am On Dec 13, 2011
@netotse, thanks for your reply. Please does anyone know where i can get good training on electrical design? (prefarably in port-harcourt or lagos ). I already know the basics of autocad but i cant just get around the whole design business without external help.most of the trainers i come across are those who will teach you the basics autocad without really teaching you the application to real life electrical drawing.Thanks
Re: Electrical Engineering: Aspirants and Practitioners by AjanleKoko: 11:23am On Dec 14, 2011
I need to hire someone on contract basis for a project I want to do early next year.
The person should have good technical experience with automotive electronics. Preferably an installer, someone who knows how to install vehicle add-ons, like alarms/security, tracking, installation of DVD screens in cars, and whatnot. No specific qualification is required if you know your stuff.

Identify yourself here if you fit the bill. I'll be getting in touch.
Re: Electrical Engineering: Aspirants and Practitioners by debeey87(m): 3:09pm On Dec 16, 2011
I am an HND holder in Electrical/Electronics Engineering.I graduated in 2009. I actually would have loved to go into IT, but the cost of the various certifications scared me off. Now I intend to venture into power, though I had my two Industrial trainings in with NEPA. but i am finding it difficult even to get any company to work with.Any body with advise on available opportunities

Mr Ajanlekoko, Very nice job you are doing in here man, more grease. please I am a fresh graduate electrical engineer(power). I am currently serving in Benin city of all places, where i have been posted to is just mental torture cos i have absolutely nothn to build on. please i want to ask if u know any reasonable courses i can do in the mean time to help improve not just my qualifications but abilities as an engineer. I was also thinking of going to phcn here in benin to volunteer for some months, dont know if they would accept me and if i would actually learn anything practical wise doing that. please what do you think

as per the bolded, cant you get yourself posted to PHCN? if you can, pick transmission, they have better engineers than distribution by far. . .if you're in PHCN you'll be given the chance to do anything you want to. . .in every station there are the layabouts and the hardworkers.
