This is to inform candidates who wants to study at the
Petroleum Training Institute (PTI), Effurun, that they are
now to sit for the JAMB Unified Tertiary Matriculation
Examination (UTME).


Following the Federal Government’s directive to ensure
uniformity in admission processes into all tertiary
institutions in Nigeria, the Joint Admission and
Matriculation Board (JAMB) has listed the institute in its
brochure.


According to the PTI Deputy Director of Public Relations,
Mr Brown Ukanefimoni, the institution was established to
train skilled technologists and technicians required for oil
production.


The institute awards National Diploma (ND) and Higher
National Diploma (HND) in diverse fields related to oil
exploration and processing. Ukanefimoni said the
government’s planned to ensure sanity in the admission
process.


With the development, Ukanefimoni said applicants who
pick PTI as their first choice would be admitted through
UTME, adding that the institution would conduct entrance
examination to make the admission competitive.


He said the institution would however retain one-on-one
interview as part of the criteria for HND programme
