I was in your shoes too my brother. I finished ma OND from yabatech with a strong upper credit and I tried DE 3 times. Due to what I heard abt this so called discrimination and wat I saw while in GTB for ma IT made me wow never to go back for HND. Am currently in 300l osun state university. Never give up. You can go for PT if FT doesn't work out.

Or better still, u should apply for any university accredited part time programme and save ursef the stress of taking jamb and starting from 100l when u can begin from 200l in any university accredited to run a part time programme. some university part time form available is Uniosun.
Pls sir, how many years will it take to run direct entry part time in uniosun?

Hi sir,

Get it straight. Its not a 6 months Degree. We convert your HND results into a Bachelor Degree which could take 1 - 6 months[size=20pt] if you pay up[/size] and finish your project within those months.

HND is 4/5 years while B.Sc is also 4/5 years. Hope this helps

The conversion programme is not for everyone.

Thanks sir.



I will make sure NUC gets to the bottom of this!!!!

Mr Dudu,

What has NUC Nigeria got to do with MHESR Republic of Benin. I believe people need to be carefully educated on this little issue that NUC is minding their business in Nigeria and not other countries.

Mr Dudu, I will be glad if you can let NUC know about it and we will both fetch you out. I think you have enough money to spend in the court of Law Come on.... Bring it on.

Bring your personal Lawyer against our organisational Lawyer and see who will spend more? Hahaha... You make me laugh.

You better mind your business Mr Dudu before we fetch you out here. Hope you see the way am minding my own business?

I would appreciate it if you can cooperate with me. I like trouble, because that is where I make my money from as an At**n*y.

Best regards sir.

My confusion with your option is that - Is it really a top-up programme or a degree conversion programme? If the latter, how would it reflect on my transcripts if I decide to further my education?
Re: I Want To Be A Lecturer But Have Only HND, Advise Me by Timossa(m): 11:37am On Dec 05, 2016
Hi Kisso,

Let me make it clear for you, if you have HND we will convert your HND and Transcripts into a Bachelor Degree and if you have OND, NCE you will be made to do a Bachelor Top Up programme. Hope this prove useful?

Yes, you got it right. But when applying for jobs, you can present both your HND and B.Sc certificates. But for masters degree, you will present your B.Sc transcripts. Hope you understand?

Bad advice, online program for lecturing work, are u sure Nigeria university wil accept the qualification for career in academics? I doubt it. Wat worth doing at all, worth doing well. Go and do the degree either full time or distance learning from any federal/ state university and proceed immediately for ur master program. Best of luck.

Good advice, no university in Nigeria will employ HND+PGD+Msc, don't waste ur time and resources. If u like academics as u claimed, go and do degree and Msc, ur HND wil be added advantage if u want to lecture in polytechnic. HND+ PGD not equivalent to degree.



ote author=ade2008 post=50987155]

No university will employ him as a lecturer even with HND+PGD+MSC, only polytechnic can. Even to be employed in a polytechnic the PGD should be in the core field(mass comm not in education+ MSC. Academic carreer for HND is very narrow , you can only work as a technologist, so my advice is obtain a degree if you're passionate about working in academic as lecturer. I'm a senior technologist working in a polytechnic , speaking from experience[/quote]

Four years ago, I was in your shoes.

I had an HND(Distinction) in accounting and ACA.

The discrimination was just too much. My friend told me the painful truth. He ask me to go back to school for a Bsc in Accounting.

I thought of this, with children school fees to pay, family to feed and cloth and other important financial responsibilities to meet, how could I possibly add another responsiblity of paying university school fees for myself. It wasn't an easy decision.

In 2012, then i was 38 years, i took a bold step that is later to be one of the important decisions of my life. I enrolled for a Bsc accounting in Anambra state university.

It was not an easy journey, but the support i got from my wife made things a whole lot easier. I completed the program in December 2015 after 4 years of struggle. I collected my statement of result in September 2016. The good thing is that i finished with First Class (honours).

Today, as I am typing this, I am gainfully employed with my Bsc result. By next year, God willing, I will start my MSc in Accounting.

Sir, the truth is that you need a Bsc if ever you want to be a lecturer. MBA is not an accademic masters and as such is not recognised in the academic environment.

In my class during the Bsc days, I had a coursemate who is older than me and who came in with the following qualifications: HND, PGD, MSC, ACA, ACIT. Yet he came back to do Bsc.

On a final note, NEVER LET AGE STOP YOU FROM ACCOMPLISHING A NOBLE IDEA.
Dis is just inspiring,my Goodness

my advice to you is this, try as much as possible to finish with a first class. It will not be easy but it is achievable.
First class is the only thing that will compensate for doing Bsc at this age.

I was able to make a first class because I was determined. in the early part of the program, I made sure I scored the maximum points.

Remember that I did HND in accounting, so from level 200 to 400 I maintained a cgpa of 4.89. my worst result was in 500l. Finally, I finished with 4.7 as earlier stated.

As at today, there is hardly any company I apply to that doesn't invite me for interview.

The only point of disagreement has always been during negotiations.

Currently, I have over 14 years experience in accounting function.

My only, deficiency which I want to start working on is lack of good comportment during public speaking. The reason is quite obvious, I was a book worm during my poly and uni days.

I hardly socialise. A friend has introduced me to toastmasters and I want to check them out this weekend in their Ikeja branch.

finally, you won't regret going for Bsc.

please, ignore my typo. I was in a hurry while typing this using my phone.
u've earned my respect,wowwww

why don't you create your own thread and advertise your MLM business?

why do you always expose your ignorance by derailing others thread?

I bet you only fools will part with their N6600 for such businesses as you advertised.

Good aftn bro. I have a degree in Industrial and Labour Relations Second Class lower div, av been self employed ryt since i graduated in 2012 and i want to practice exactly what i studied especially Human Resource Management. How can you help me out. Thanks in anticipation.

Timossa:
Its advisable you add your HND after PGD. The two qualifications should be indicated on your CV.


E.g.,

Obafemi Awolowo University - 2015
PGD in Business Management

Yaba College of Technology - 2013
HND in Business Administration


I am giving this advise as a Certified Human Resource Practitioner.

Good luck.

Re: I Want To Be A Lecturer But Have Only HND, Advise Me by Timossa(m): 6:30pm On Dec 18, 2016
You can easily practice Human Resource Management with your business if you have people working for you. HRM is very vast, without organization, people and resources, you cannot practice HRM.

You may have to locate organizations or get a job where you can function in the HR Dept. HR needs practice and that is where you get most of your experience from.

Most HR positions requires a lot or some working experiences. But you can include your ''Self Employment'' work history on your CV so that it can look attractive.

Hope my suggestions prove useful?

Good luck sir.
