pls does anyone know the names of UK universities in Liverpool where medical graduates can apply for medical scholarship and study masters in Medical courses?

I will honestly advice your cousin prepare for PLAB exams as its not easy to pass and besides he will still need to write English proficiency exams as well. I think there is another PLAB 1 exam coming up on the 4th of November.

I will strongly suggest he prepares for the exams before attempting them. PLAB is the medical licencing exam for foreign medical graduates before they can practice in the UK.

There is no need to rush the Exam. If going to Nigeria is not an option; he can register for a MSc program in the UK while he attempts to sit for English proficiency exam and both PLAB 1 and 2 ( this route is hard as he will be faced with coursework and preparing for all exams

Yes, I agree with you. Studying Masters (eg. in Public Health) is a great advise. He is ready for d Masters option, while preparing for d PLAB exams. But which UK universities are good or better for medical graduates?

Good Day everyone. Pls I need to enquire on my cousin's behalf. He just completed his medical studies in Ukraine this year 2021. He has be to be certified to practice as a medical doctor but he would like to practice as a doctor in UK. Pls what are the necessary conditions or requirements that he needs to meet in order to be certified and practice as a doctor in UK? Secondly, can my cousin possibly pass and get certified in UK without necessarily returning to Nigeria to write the certification exams? Thirdly, what advise would he need that would be very very important for my cousin (who just graduated as a medical doctor from Ukraine university) to help him to be a practicing medical doctor in UK?

scobyy2007:
Yes, you can. Abuja TLS allows that though!

Pls what is TLS all about ?

Your relative cousin will have to go to Nigeria as he will need to sit for IELTS or OET before he can register for PLAB 1 (registration for August will close 1st july) after which he can travel to the UK for PLAB 2 after passing PLAB1. Can't write PLAB 2 without passing PLAB 1 and cant write PLAB 1 without English test

Pls what is PLAB 1? Can he register for PLAB from Ukraine? Does he need to be in Nigeria to register for PLAB especially since d deadline (1st July) is very close? Is the PLAB meant to certify a medical graduate?

Hello Everyone! Pls I'm in need of urgent enquiry. My relative cousin has recently graduated/completed his studies on
medicine at Ukraine this year 2021 June. Pls I want to ask -
Is it possible for him, a medical graduate to proceed to UK
direct (from Ukraine instead of returning to Nigeria) to write
medical certification exams in UK and be certified abroad
and do housemanship over there? Pls I need advise

Who is the sponsor?

my Uncle... it was around December 2020 that my brother applied for visa and submitted his sponsor's (uncle) bank statement... On June 2021, d embassy called my bro to also provide his sponsor's bank statement. We realize d sponsor (uncle) had depleted most of his money in d account compared to d bank statement he presented last December 2020. I am deeply worried now, because even though the sponsor topped it and added extra money this month to reach d expected estimate account in demand, d embassy still wants to know exactly that same bank acct that my uncle (sponsor) used in transferring money (i.e d embassy wants the bank acct of d one where that transferred money came from) into his account that has been presented to the embassy... My sponsor claimed he transferred d money from his investment account. But he is yet to present that second bank acct statement for submission. My question is what will be d extent of d impact of a sponsor's bank account details on my brother's visa processing..?

My relative is still on d visa processing stage for Australian study visa and his academic classes will begin this July 2021. He has not taken any Covid-19 vaccine. If he does not take covid vaccine, will that affect his chances to travel to Australia after borders are reopened for international students?

shams040:
Thanks so much, That is what I am taking into consideration now because I have another Canada PhD. I was planning to start the application this week before I saw Australia too. Now I am praying for God's guidance between Canada and Australia.

Canada is more likely to open their borders than Australia would. My family relative is still awaiting d visa processing for Australian study visa but borders are still shut

shams040:
Dear All,

Thank you all for the good job. I just got a PhD offer with scholarship in UNSW and would appreciate if someone can guide on how to package my visa application better.

I just got my US visa for PhD also but I prefer Auss. Also I have got some travel history, all for study purpose. Equally, I have a PhD offer with Scholarship in Canada but would reject it if the visa for Auss is sure.

I would appreciate your kind guidance.

Pls go for Canada... You will thank me later

I was hoping that one day I would give my testimony on this thread. I got my 5-year visa grant yesterday for a PhD in Medicine at the University of New South Wales. Applied Feb 3, 2021 and it has been 3+ interesting months. I did it all by myself because of the experiences shared on this thread - I started from the very beginning and read every page. This is me saying thank you to everyone that shared their stories.

Now we wait for the borders to open.

wow! Congratulations. I'm even impressed u obtained your visa after applying this year Feb 2021... Amazing! I hope for my relative to get his visa soon... The borders, I pray, would open soon by God's grace

alao1981:
I am not sure there is much to be done than wait. There is a response from a contributor on the page preceding this one forwarding message that was received by someone in similar position as your wife. So, it does not seem to be peculiar to your wife. If she feels that bothered, she can also send an email to the visa office asking for an update on her application. The July 2021 start date is of no impact since she would not have been able to travel. She should defer if no plans to commence online

is it true that if you defer twice, it could affect your visa chances, and if u defer from July 2021 academic session, will it be a one-year deferment (till 2022)?

Naijabad:
My wife's studies commences 19th of July 2021; no visa grant yet.

She differed her admission to July because of this same visa issue.

Her visa application was lodged in December 2020 and all processes were dully followed.

What should we do at this point?
Online learning is out if the question.

My relative faces d same situation... No visa yet (but d embassy has resumed visa processing and asking for bank statement from sponsor)... also academic lectures begin on July 2021 and d borders are still closed.. He got admission for Masters in aero engr and now it seems like he has to proceed with online class because he doesn't want to defer again and again...

PLS HOW DO I APPLY FOR DPR OR FCT IRS

It can only be done through connection with prominent elites (eg senator) that you are close with... I don't know any source, sadly for me

yusufdayo1:
what of those APL flying here and there..

that is what I'm saying.. Apart from security agencies or so, most of d govt recruitments are not announced... this pattern increased d more under this govt. Infact, the APLs that I've been hearing from this platform is d only way i get informed.. and the govt bodies, depts or agencies did not announce these vacancies. Recruitment is secretly done. The govt doesn't even try to at least do formality or pretend and announce job vacancies. It no longer happens. May God help us all

what is the latest on FCT-IRS recruitment na..?

Momsiyo:
What is wrong with working from home. Backward nation.��

Did u read everything on the comment properly or u decided to pick out few lines? To initiate Covid-19 protocol and restrict workers below level 12 to their homes should not be an excuse for the government to stop job recruitment or vacancies.. This is what I meant!

TammyAnybody:
Employment scarce for 2021 ohh....

Imagine no one single agency openly advertise for recruitment this year, we are in June already

that is d common pattern of this regime.. besides some security agencies, this govt barely advertise job openings in govt offices, departments and agencies. They even disown job recruitment claims on d media more than they announce job vacancies... This Is d bitter truth about dis government over d years as well. I even heard from a Director in a govt agency that they have not been given d permission by govt to recruit because workers and employees below level 12 are not allowed to work in office consistently but work from home or enta office in limited days due to everlasting COVID-19 Protocol. Since employees of govt below level 12 (which would include newly recruits at level 7-8 anyways) are restricted from office periodically, they aren't recruiting

is the FCT-IRS recruitment still ongoing?

[quote author=UtilityRational post=102654680][/quote]what is the salary pay for FCT-IRS for beginner's level?

Hello everyone.... Pls which government departments and agencies are currently recruiting or giving out APLs.. I need a list of agencies employing as at recent PLS!

It is no longer news that the COVID-19 pandemic forever altered educational systems across the world. In Nigeria, schools were closed for almost 8 months, leading to millions of students being cut off from learning, while others had to learn at home.

Now, even though schools have resumed, many students still struggle with adjusting back to school life, connecting with peers, learning in class, and sitting for exams. In addition to these, the high level of insecurity in the country has forced many parents to withdraw their students from schools and settle for homeschooling.

The reality is that post-COVID-19, learning at home has come to stay, and the benefits are enormous, especially for students in Nigeria. Students get to learn at their pace with or without a teacher, evaluate their own learning through quizzes and games, and have access to a wide range of resources and materials beyond what the traditional teacher in the classroom offers.

Additionally, learning at home is affordable – online education platforms are either cheap or free, making them easily affordable to students in low-income communities. Similarly, students do not have to make the trip to a physical location and are therefore kept safe from violence (insurgency in the Northeast, kidnapping, etc.), disease (COVID-19), and many other ills that plague our nation. Learning at home definitely has a myriad of advantages.

This is perhaps why there has been a surge in the birth of ed-tech platforms that offer complementary and remedial learning for students. One of such platforms that launched recently is the Learn at Home audio e-learning platform by Data Science Nigeria and Malezi, sponsored by the Mastercard Foundation, an innovative where students across Nigeria get free and unlimited learning by listening to classes prepared by expert teachers using the approved NERDC curriculum, students also get to listen to a collection of solved past questions from 2009 to 2020 for exams like WAEC, NECO, Common Entrance, BECE, and JAMB. Even better, learning is absolutely free and only consumes minimal data, and if you’re on MTN, learning does not consume any data and can be done using any type of device- even the most basic phones.

Visit www.learnathome.radio to enjoy free and unlimited learning now.

Hello! Pls is there any job vacancy that has been advertised in NERDC this year?

torphix:
Flipping through the education system in Nigeria, particularly even as a student teacher, under some disgusting and uncomfortable situation, I feel more depressed, as every day from time immemorial there seems to be little or no review to the school curriculum we have, prior to the 2014 curriculum, I mean the Introduction of the B.E.C, By 2008, the federal government through the National Education Research Development Council, NERDC, introduced the Universal Basic Education Curriculum.

Pls have there been any recent job recruitment at NERDC ?

DHA have been granting visas since the beginning of the year. One of my students got visa on Friday, some of my colleagues students too got visas last month. The major problem now is the opening of border to allow those with visas travel.

that is serious... my brother still hasn't gotten his student visa.... He applied for scholarship (Masters) which he got since April last year 2020 and paid fees by December. Yet He has not been called from d Australian embassy for visa processing or so ever since he did and submitted his medical assessment test this year.... What could be the reason for the delay?

When will the Australian embassy begin to grant applicants their student visas this year 2021? Or have they started inviting Nigerians for visa collection?
