For me, Nigerian degrees even if FIRST CLASS it's not actually useful outside Nigeria. Mostly in western countries i.e USA Canada Luxembourg etc.

That's why when people who relocate to this country who want to push on their professional careers always go back to school in those country.
Reason I guess is based on their educational and teaching standard requirements.
I have some questions for you. If you graduate with first, second or third class , relocate to western countries i.e USA Canada Luxembourg etc. if you want to push your professional career and go back to school, are you going to start at 100 level or go for your master degree?

If you are going for your master degree with your Bsc from Nigeria? Do you still consider the Bsc not to be useful?

Good question..

I hope I try to explain this as much understandable as I can for you.

You see all those doctors here in Nigeria right, they are not doctors when the relocate abroad. They get jobs as home care aid to nursing sick people. That is a different occupation far far from practicing as a doctor in America or Canada or UK.
Infact you can as well apply to be a home care assistant as well with your university degree from Nigeria which is considered a normal equivalent to diploma here. You just have to pass the nursing exam which I know a 200level university student from Nigeria can read the Q&A and pass as well.
What you do is simply take care of old people or mentally unstable people and make sure they don't poop on their self or when they do you change them and also make sure they take their meds regularly and also monitor them so they don't harm their self.
Anybody can do that job infact that is equivalent to a factory job if you don't know only this time you be more careful because you handling a human life and can be arrested and you go to jail if you flop because it is stated there in your agreement you sign before you start working.

If you want to be a doctor in these countries, you have to apply for a medical or a nursing program/ degree where you undergo the process from the begining according to the countries teaching regulations and standards, pass the necessary exams, go for your training practice, write another exam if you fail you have to retake it which happens very often because I have friends who it has happened to. Then luckily you pass them you go under the process to be a certified nurse or doctor depending on the field you choose.

I hope you get the point now. Merry Xmas and season greetings.

My friend you better read well before you come open you smelling mouth and talk rubbish with me. Small illiterate.
Nigerians and mouth sha. Backyard UK because of the distance? Run am now. I stayed in UK for close to 2 years and the only thing that can make anyone run away from that country is getting a permanent residence which seems to be a difficult one. Pound sterling today is more than 2k NGN. If my present job is in London, I will definitely be spending at least a weekend in Lagos every month. Tell me about this better country that your friend relocated to.

Then how come our doctors and nurses get jobs from these countries while still in nigeria
The only degree useful is nursing at the moment. Because you will write nclex and the rest. For doctors I don't know if they are still useful. They used to be useful for UK untill they stopped.

Can Nigeria certificate be use outside Nigeria, other African countries or oversea countries u.k, canada other English speaking countries.
The answer from my perspective is that Nigeria certificate is useful . However, there is bias against foreign degree except in the field such as IT, engineering and medical.

You will just open your mouth waaaaaaaa and starting vomiting r***bbish. Simply stay away from the topic if u have nothing to contribute. Doctors and nurses don't need to undergo any courses in UK, us, Canada and Australia, all u need to do Is to pass the exams that can guarantee you to practice in the country. For example the UK where I'm resident as a band5 nurse BSC. As a Nigeria nurse all u need to do Is to pass IELTS with band score of 7.0, pass your computer base test CBT in your field of specialisation, then you will start your application, if you are lucky to get an offer, the trust will sponsor you to the UK and you have to seat for an exam called OSCE and you must pass the exams within three attempts, then the NMC UK will give you UK PIN and u become UK nurse. Same with doctors, lab scientist etc.
Re: Is Nigeria Certificate Useful Outside The Country? by micflo28(m): 11:25am On Dec 27, 2024
When we don't value the Certificates here in our own country. Until recruitments in Nigeria are based on your qualifications and not who you know, no one else will value the Certificates. We also need to evaluate our curriculum to be practical based. A graduate of Computer Science doesn't need to still go to computer training institute to learn programming or other ict courses. Finally, Universities need to extend partnership with foreign Universities to begin serious exchange programmes where lecturers and students swap for a period of time to ensuring global competitive standards.

I think that university certificates awarded outside of western countries including Nigeria are irrelevant in western countries except highschool leaving certificate such as waec and its equivalent which can be used to secure tertiary education in western countries.

I hope someone shares more insight to your question here.

It is not like that. Generally, some degrees are useless. It's not a bias against Nigeria degrees. If u study political science in Nigeria, you will end up packing shit in Canada. The best you can get is a customer care job and you will drop the job when you are deaf and going into depression.

Seeing the beautiful nonsense you typed is laughable. Sorry to say that grin grin grin

Many Nigerians healthworkers undergo interview in Nigeria with those countries and still secure a job smoothly with their Nigeria certificates.
When you don't know how things work make a research and not just type rubbish.

Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and most Middle East countries accept Nigerian healthworkers certificate kiakia!

Some countries in Europe will send letter to the medical council body governing each of the medical areas in Nigeria(in Nigeria we have plenty of them viz Nursing and midwifery council of Nigeria, medical and dental Council of Nigeria, Medical laboratory scientist counsel of Nigeria etc).
These bodies will verify that you are truly a qualified healthcare personnel that graduated from a Nigerian University and is duly licensed. Cikena! You have the job.
There may be other little demands like ielts, UKVI, PLAB etc....
Canada will accept you to practice after verification.
Before USA will only accept you if you passed specific exams like USMLE for doctors. But recently they actually have laws that allow Nigerian trained doctors to practice without any bottleneck. Just show that you graduated from Nigeria and you are fully licensed. Check recent rulings in Massacheuset and Texas about immigrant Nigerian doctors.

Bottom line is THAT all the medical professionals courses that have licensing bodies are hot cakes outside Nigeria.
Those that do other things when they get there really don't have plans of going through the necessary stress and verification to make them practice their areas of specialty.

SO YES. ALL THE HEALTH WORKERS CERTIFICATES ARE HOTCAKE OUTSIDE NIGERIA.

Lol just typing rubbish with calmness han han feeding people with lies.

I am a physiotherapist, I got a job in UK directly from Nigeria in 2022 and I moved there and I work with NHS, I only applied for a license to work as a physiotherapist in UK. That is all I did.

I have met so many doctors that studied in Nigeria, working as doctors here, they didn’t have to go to any more school, they just wrote the licensing exams to practice which is standard.

I have countless number of nurses who got job directly from Nigeria.

Stop spreading misinformation
wat chances does a native doctor from Nigeria has in securing a job in d UK there?

You said one has to start studies from the begining when they move to the west as our university degrees are not recognised,yes you also added that one will also have to apply and seat for licencing exams before getting a job there .
He on the other hand is letting you know that, the lie in your assertion lay where you stated that one will have to start afresh .
He is saying that our university certificates are recognised but that one needs to apply and take a licencing test in order to be certified in the west ,that's not starting afresh bro.

I live in Luxemburg and I a member chatterd institute of public management of Nigeria. I got a manager Jib right from Nigeria before moving here ,as the certificate is recognised worldwide .

Una go just the get mumu and nameless pride anyhow.
