You are right... I noticed that I even bookmarked both of these sites. But I know there is only one ISPON in Ibadan sha. May we not put money into the wrong thing in Jesus' name.

enemerci:
Please can someone help explain.
Do we have double ISPON in lagos?
I called a number I got from www.Ispon.org and I was told that Ghse is 45,000 and HSE level 3 is 25,000. Only for me to get to the Lagos address on that same website I was told that the people I called are fake. I was given another website www.Ispon.gov.ng, i was told that Ghse is 55,000 and Hse level is another 55,000 that is a total of N110,000.
Please why all these differences which one is real and which is fake.

For people who equally want to run the HSE program please make proper enquiries o. One cannot afford to loose money any how in this our country.

I paid for General HSE this afternoon at their Ibadan Chapter- N47,000.
The website is www.isponnigeria.org

Level 3 is N27,000.
Examination, Project defense and Induction- N40,000.


TOTAL= N114k.



Cheers!

Bankyshinani:
Please, I would like to know how much you paid for the training and also the duration of the training.. Thanks

1 week x 2.

30 Multiple options questions CBT for 40 minutes.

The questions are a combination of elementary Mathematics, Logic, case scenerio, and a sort of General Knowledge.

Go to the venue early Irrespective of your scheduled time, and be checked in with your Invite, ID & original credentials. Your login details will be given to you here.

*Work on ur speed & accuracy without using calculators.

Be vigilant cos the instruction page & the actuall test area are very similar...i.e, you may not be warned that you've actually started the test.

The questions are neither difficult nor easy- more like a psychological assessment.

Yes, the crowd was much. I think every applicant was invited.

Remii:
its hard but its the truth, Skye bank shareholders have all lost their investments, like those of bank PhB, Intercontinental, Spring, etc that went under in 2008/2008, Skye bank share certificates are mere papers now. CBN governor only talked about depositors nothing on the shareholders because they have nothing again.

Hello boss.... Are you still with crc? pls allow me have your facebook. I'm at www.facebook.com/emperormero.
I need to have a word with you.
Thanks.

Please what is the name of your company?

ESSOHEngineers:
Please permit the long post we will make on this matter. Currently, it is a reoccurring matter in many organizations where Engineers are being ignorantly haughty about being the people destined to be HSE professionals, claiming they know better.

No, you don't necessarily need to be an Engineer. Listen, don't let engineers fool you with all that crap. I am an Engineer at an MSc Level. Please what is the definition of Engineering? It is application of physical and other science principles to manipulate materials and forces of nature to the benefit of man. That a few people decided to call their discipline engineering is just human edification of certain disciplines.

There are other disciplines that in their own right should be called engineering. And as academia develops, new engineering disciplines are borne. Systems Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Waste Water Engineering, Safety/HSE Engineering etc.

What you really need in HSE is a knowledge in physical sciences, mental sciences and social sciences. Yes, the HSE Discipline is that broad. Very broad. And Engineers cannot lay claim to having all this knowledge. Your Mathematics, Physics , Chemistry and Biology and then some knowledge in Physiology and Human Psychology. Based on our experiences, being vast in these areas gives you added advantage in HSE Sciences. It is only added advantage. If you are interested you can also train yourself online to be as good as any engineer. Gone are the days when we learn through the old means.

It is this advantage of being grounded in Physical Sciences especially Physics,Chemistry and Maths/Statistics, that Engineers have, which gives them the edge. It is like being tall and being a basketballer. It doesn't mean short people aren't good at basketball. But being tall is an advantage. This advantage means engineers can go very deep into the profession and specialize in very deep areas.

The problem we have found with non physical science background HSE professionals is that they can't go deep into the Profession. The moment it goes beyond slips, trips and falls they get confused with all the calculations and etc. However, It doesn't mean someone who studied management sciences can't be a HSE Professional. The person only needs to be serious and learn the principles again. It will take some hard work. It will might be difficult, but if the person is determined, the person will go far.

So, what we should be interested in is someone with a good Physical Science, Mental Science and Social Science Background and not simply saying "Engineers". In Nigeria, engineering it is one of the few disciplines that still rely on expatriate input to get things done. Accountants, teachers , lawyers, etc are all being run and supervised by Nigerians. Till date Engineers most often than not, have a white man monitoring them.

Remember finally that it is HSE. Health, Safety and Environment. In other areas it is CASHESQ. Community Affairs, Safety, Health, Environment and Quality. No Engineer can lay claim to knowing all these so well because he or she was taught all these in school. None! I challenge any engineer to bring his/her curriculum.

So go ahead and chase your area of interest. Good luck.

please where can I get resources online if I wish to choose that path to aid my learning process? Thank you.

Frequently asked questions:

Question: What is the shelf life of the dual fuel carburetor?
Answer: I always tell my clients that it is transferable. In other words, as long as the settings remain unaltered and the generator is properly maintained, the carburetor will keep working. Even if you decided on the long run to buy another generator, the carburetor will still perform optimally without any drop in its efficiency. I have been using mine for close to 2 years now and the efficiency is still very high.

For further enquiry, please call 08033190807 or send us an e-mail on rcvlogistics@gmail.com

Good day Japhet1902, you are well sighted. You will be contacted shortly. Thanks!

please where in Ibadan can I take my RLG device to for repairs? Thanks.

Hello @ npowerng well done. My RLG MATE device developed a fault.
Please, where can I take it to in Ibadan to fix it?

Shugarlord213:
Drop details here. I ain’t contacting what I don’t know

I quoted a man who is probably ready for real business. Get your Lawyer, let's arrange a meeting in private after you contact me, and we sign the necessary documents.


If it was something I can put up here, I would have done that. If it was illegal, I won't be requesting that you get a Lawyer.

feeddhung:
Please guys what business can one invest into with about 500k. Safe investment. Am elderly and am not talking about a business i have to go to work on daily. More like a sleeping partner or likely manageable stress. Thanks alot for your great ideas.

I can make that money work for you. I'm in Ibadan, but I don't mind signing the business with you. Just come with your Lawyer and I'll come with mine, we'll discuss the terms and duration of the contract, and we are good to go. I guarantee you 150% ROI in 12 months, and if you wish, we can renew the contract. Contact me on www.facebook.com/emperormero or www.twitter.com/UfuoMero .... Quote me if you are interested

I wonder how you expect us to compare devices when we were allowed to choose and use only one. I will probably rate my device as the best, in relation to what others say about theirs.....
In my area, we all chose RLG MATE, so no basis for analysis.

Solstar:
Just giants mined the entire Earth's crust, mountains are actually rock heaps, some of those rock heaps they hid these massive explosives and once in a while at certain pressure build up the stuff begins to explode and the intense heat melts the rocks into molten magma that pours out unto the surface. These information are kept secret, and schools are thought the wrong science, cos some people do not want the populace to know the True history of Earth and what this place is. That is why a lot of people do not know the meaning of life and the purpose of life as well as their mission. It is a cryptic matrix which I have decoded.

I personally have to stop talking about it.

you watch too much cartoons.

The way out of poverty in 2018 is building an online business that will fetch you regular income after 4 months. A lot of Nigerians are scammed online because of poverty mentality of get rich quick scheme. It is not the day you set up a business you start earning from it, you have to build it to a level.
I present to you an online business that will fetch you consistent income of not less than $500 per week after 4 months. But, you must be patient, diligent and ready to invest your time and money ( not too expensive).
If you say you can't wait for 4 months o; it's too much. Let me ask you: what have you achieved since January till now. 4 months from now is August, you may be lucky to even start earning before then. You better plan for tomorrow now so you don't end this year like other past years.

you are not being objective here...... See why this thread was created and take a cue..

frankwealth:
Now this is very objective and straightforward, thanks for sharing your ideas.....we hope more people will come forth to share theirs.

You can as well use this medium to reach out to those who wishes to go into such business so you can mentor them to success for a small fee, thanks again

Thanks....I really hope this thread becomes interactive to assist people seeking for genuine ideas to get started in life smiley

frankwealth:
Very good. But can you be more objective and tell us just exactly the steps you would take using the stipulated capital as a startup to bounce back again Practical steps you would take

frankwealth:
Interesting, but permit me to ask, is treasury bills that profitable, again considering how people don't have confidence in the present Nigerian government

I will share my own later...I want us to make the thread interactive so people can learn from here and know how to get started in life. Thanks for stopping by....

frankwealth:
Very enlightening and the reason this thread was created for people to share their honest, practical based idea to startup a successful business or whatever. Thanks for this, will be checking your thread shortly as soon as I am done with what I am doing, thank you
