This one doesn't understand what Police signal means, he just opened his mouth to talk nonsense.

It is Police Wireless Message. They refer to it as signal as a generic name. This confuses ignorant people like you.

So why is the NUC not giving the HND holders that have taken the "prescribed number of units" Bsc but rather give them a worthless pgd cert?

It's no brainer. If after obtaining HND, you enrol on PGCert, that's what you get. Otherwise, enrol on BA/BSc honours if you want a proper degree.


There are schools abroad where you can go for masters directly with your HND cert which is not so in Nigeria, as schools anywhere have different requirement for admitting students.


You're right. Courses for horses; each to their own. My knowledge of the UK University system is that in yesteryears when ex-polytechnics e.g now Universities of Luton, Wolverhampton, Sunderland, Plymouth, London South Bank, Westminster, etc., started to award degrees, they admitted HNDs into their master's programmes. Red bricks chose not to do this.

The requirement for getting a Bsc with your HND in Nigeria is through direct entry, Another country may require a different path such as allowing HND holders take a "prescribed number units" to be able to get their Bsc cert.

Conversion and Top Up means the same thing.

I'm currently running a conversion program and it's 4 semesters so there's no argument here.

It's like some people are not Happy that HND graduates now have a Pathway to obtain a Bachelor's Degree and enjoy the benefits that comes with it.

NUC created the unwarranted disparity between Bsc and HND holders,hence the emergence of the Top up programs. No one wants to be treated as inferior or second class. They should allow HND holders breathe.
