Go look how much geologist earn in Florida USA then come back and respond to me I am waiting for your response on this.
Maybe you will understand why I choose geology as a profession even though I have a masters degree and don't practice it here.
No doubt, Geology is great but it now depends on if you know your onions. Your previous comments indicate you crammed your way all through school and have no knowledge. There is no way then that you can practice abroad.

The BSc I obtained from Unilorin, along with my audit experience in Nigeria, helped me secure an audit job in Canada. My BSc was evaluated by WES, as shown below. Having a BSc from Nigeria, combined with relevant experience in reputable companies, can lead to job opportunities abroad if you have legal residency. Some professionals, such as nurses, doctors, auditors, tech specialists, and engineers, are even sponsored from Nigeria.u.

Stop your lies. You never got a job. You need certification to secure a job. Your university of ilorin degree is recognized. But you need professional certification to secure a job. I schooled abroad after Nigeria university degree. Engineering skill changes with time. Engineers go back to school. My friend who is a doctor in the United state of America went back to school in the usa. And he did residency again in the usa. He also wrote is licensing examination
It's not me you should tell oo it's them you should tell.
I have been trying to tell them the same thing they say I am a lier. I don't know what I am saying.

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.

That's not correct. Loads of diffrence in what I said and what he said. If you study medicine in USA or any other countries of the world, and you want to practice in Nigeria, you will need to pass Nigeria's Medical council professional exams..Does that mean USA certificate is not trustedhuh

Before you can say a certificate is not recognized, it will not even qualify you to be able to sit for those exams. The fact you can use your BSc certificate to get MSc and PhD positions, and also get remote jobs while in Nigeria means they are well recognised.

So, having to write a professional exams before starting a professional job does not mean the certificate is not trusted..it is just a global practice.
U don't understand global practices, what is recognized and what is required are 2 different things. Bsc is required globally for certain positions in application, the question of where/country it is obtained is a different matter to different profession and employers !!

You can't be privy to the standards and procedures applied to candidates from Harvard and MIT when they apply cross border, compared to LASU graduates.

Yes, exams and registration may apply because of legal and ethical reasons but definitely not across board for 3rd world countries.

The employer simply adopt the Reg & Lic across board for ease of doing business not for accreditation and recognition of 1st tier inst from 1st world countries.

The nig cert is not recognized in the UK or states as credentials to work or practice, it is accepted as a requisite for employment into certain cadres of work.

And there is a difference btw employment ad practice..... U can be an engineer in the US and setup an auto workshop in Nigeria based on your qualifications and exp, can u take ur M. Eng. from YABATECH to set up shop in US?

of course u can't! That's just a sample, I can give many instances of recognition where the nig certs fails
Re: Is Nigeria Certificate Useful Outside The Country? by irepat1(m): 4:42pm On Dec 27, 2024
Nigeria Certificate plus experience is useful outside the country.
I am a living testimony.
I have over 30 Nigerians who are in the engineering field that job with visa sponsorship outside the country while they were still in Nigeria.

Nigeria system has really warped ur mind!

When you apply into the army, do they give u job or you are shortlisted and then enlisted ?

If you are applying from overseas into a job from 3rd world countries, they have 2 plans for you: on the job training and 2. Re-accreditation through exams and licensing !!

Do they do same for their home graduates ?

They only require that basic bsc qualification, where you obtain it is what is stopping u from practicing

Lol. You are very ignorant. did you not hear of the red listed countries. The almost only country doctors can migrate to is UK. And at the moment, Nigeria is on their redlist. Infact almost the entire Africa is on their red list.
See, if you don't know something, just ask. Not to turn insultive. Anyway, I don't blame you. You are just very ignorant.

Nigerian degree? Sorry for you!
Na wetin make me remain like this so!!
Sometimes, not getting the right info is out problems. Your Nigeria degree could build you a strong basis to land a good job abroad.

There is something called professional base point. Your degree scores a point, experience after school and if you have done a professional exam to proof your worth is among.

Why we make wrong assertion is because we only stopped at degrees here, we hardly see people acquiring more professional certs to make you stand tall like others from the world.

Imagine an Aussie from the same background as you applying for the same abroad job in US. Do you stand to beat such arms down?

Your degree, professional qualifications and certification and experience in the relevant field are all they will use to judge both of you not your country.

And you are so so stupid and dumb that you haven't been reading my previous response to others.
I bet you too na UK base you be that's why u dey open your big mouth.

Oyah make I give you your own dosage as per mumu wain u be.

I will school you small now. You see you idiot, UK colonized Nigeria. And as such, we adopted almost all their nums and traditions when it comes to education. Or don't you see that all school in the UK they wear school uniforms?
We learned all that from your colonial masters. That's why I don't include UK because UK na like Lagos Nigeria only difference between say water and light dey steady.

Now I am talking bout other well developed advanced countries let's try Luxembourg or Denmark or Sweden or even America tell me say you you go get Nigerian degrees certificates then you go dey work for medical field for these countries mentioned above.

That never happens. You must go start over you only use you Nigerian degrees as a bridge to scale over to further your degree to I'd you to work in those countries.
In summary you mumu, your degrees are equivalent to their highschool diploma or community college degree if you get me.
You need to start thinking outside the box.
Na why oyinbos hide secrets for us for inside book because we no dey read to do research yourself.
You are a perfect example of an ignorant fool with low thinking mentality.

Yes, them go write exam.

The same way foreign-trained doctors go write exam before them practice for Nigeria.

In your post you asserted that Nigerian certs are not acknowledged abroad. That doctors here work as care providers in nursing home. And all that.

Now, this is not true, boss.

Nigerian medical certificates are FULLY ACKNOWLEDGED abroad. The exams them dey write no be for extra university schooling or something...na to ensure they meet the minimum requirements to practice there are an FOG.

You get?
