Good evening Nairalanders, will really appreciate your response especially from those in medical nd pure science fields.
Am a graduate of Biochemistry and would love to have a certification as am not planning for Msc now to boost my CV. I am looking at obtaining a certification from Edwin chadwick school of environmental health....duration is 1yr.
I really want someone who has experienced it or knows someone that has gotten the certification to throw more light on it in terms of the advantage it has in the labour market and the quality of education given. Pls am waiting o because I don't have money to waste at this time of my life.

lol! greatest metabolite!!!

i almost went for a similar certification in environmental health earlier this year (actually a professional PGD from ehorecon). I didn't go through with it but decided to pitch my tent elsewhere. ehorecon (environmental health officers registration council of nigeria) training will cost you just N170,000 for a 9 month course

Thanks for your input Coollabman, why didn't you go for it? Is it not relevant in the labour market in Nigeria, cos the money is not small o. What course are you now doing?

finances was a huge factor, because I initially intended to complete the professional PGD in environmental health before I finished my Nysc, but had to put the plans on hold because of factors beyond my control. environmental health is relevant and will really pay off if you have a real career plan to follow. Though I might not go through with it again because it was actually my plan B
