Rudaiya: Vocational training for technical skills is the way to go. What % of the hundreds of thousands of graduates are jobless or driving Dangote trailers after wasting four plus years on campus? Smart people are following the technical education route while dullards are waiting for unavailable white collar jobs. 2 Likes 1 Share |

OMEGA009:Yes sir, I can tell you that many people who served as an apprentice in the field of industrial electrical systems are today the main driving forces in the oil industry. Knowledge is the real thing,not your papers qualification. The important in going to schools is to learns how to read and write, to learn how to interact and to be prepared . The real thing you need to be successful in life are learn outside the schools system. 3 Likes |

It's a truth that most of us know, yet shy away from due to too much value/preference placed on college degree in our "hypocritical" society. Sadly, some graduates of this colleges wouldn't be able to fend for their selves,...,living in a state of perpetual misery and lack, searching tirelessly in odd places for solution(s) to a problem they themselves are the architect. (don't ask me how). While those that took apprenticeship earlier(those that couldn't attend the college program due to several reasons ranging from finance to the corrupt and malfunctioning system through which Admission into this colleges is granted) are living comfortably as their practice can directly solve immediate problems in the same society that undermined it. To those that would still want to carry that long held notion of "I'm schooling to educate my mind/for the love of knowledge" I say happy new year to y'all when you discover that the form of knowledge you had acquired isn't putting food on your table (because of the kind of society we find our selves). Also to those going in for apprenticeship should opt for a program that can stand the test of time, something adaptive, be diligent in it and be directional. above all, I wish we all prosper in our different endeavor in life, stay truth to what you doing and always ask God for direction and support. Good morning. 4 Likes |

This post was probable copied and pasted from a foreign magazine. So is relevant to advamced countries were the premium is not placed on academic certificates. But in Nigeria, u will forever feel very low exteem and limited achievements without higher educational qualifications in addition to possessing skills. A bricklayer wit 40 years experience will still be supervised by a young Engineer or Achitect and be anwering sir all his lifes. The tilers and painters and carpenters and other skilled workers in the building industries must contantly beg the Bulding Engineers for sub contract. U cannot be a Senator, ministers, governors or president in Nigerian without advanced degrees. Even the top public servants that earns or steal millions n billions. The traders and apprentice will keep hustling and hustling for many years to break through while the educated ones stays in de comfort of their air-conditioned offices to make polices that may even mar the traders and apprentice. Even graduates are now getting the skilles to give them double advantage. So my people aspire to get a degree even if u are into apprentice to get a skill too.

empire2017:that's great. It's a practice common among the igbos. Guess you're one too. What they're offering you is mouth watering though, but you sure can't forfeit your schooling for it. It'd have been better if they'd rather help you with your school processing. Cuz it's obvious they're begging you to stay at their own benefit. Who knows, the business might not be the same without you. I wish you the best in all of your endeavours bro. 1 Like |

Safiaa: As right as you may be, you still haven't answered the question... Shell like many other companies don't require experience for their entry level recruitment, instead they need good grades. They then equip you with reasonable knowledge for your growth in the industry. For short, you'd gain your experience at shell if employed as a graduate trainee. Adios |
