I did the NTI PGDE Program in Osun, 2017. 4 years later in 2021 without a result, I was notified I failed a course and had to resit which I did and cleared the following year. 2 years later in in 2023, I needed my transcript and certificate to run the UK’s Foreign Teachers’ recruitment. After months of waiting, I got the transcript and only notification of results without a certificate. After about a year on UK’s Qualified Teachers Status document assessment queue, my request was denied because I couldn’t provide the education certification i claimed to posses and my portal was shut down after ultimatum I was given elapsed this February. The unbothered manner in which the director and his agents over there reeks and make me believe these people are unrepentantly callous. I wish we had a functional system and sue them all for the damages they’ve caused me and many people who had helplessly recline to this inhumane and avoidable twist of destiny.

So sorry to hear about your plight. But you could have immediately explored other affordable options instead of endlessly waiting.

My advice is that you quickly do the program afresh in another institution. There are countless institution to choose from. I know it can be painful but do so ASAP for your future.

Oga, instead of me telling anyone to run a programme at the institute I would tell such person to run as far as your two legs can carry you, even fly sef, what am I even saying, tell the person to disappear at the mention of NTI, I haven’t seen an institution so useless.
I did my PGDE programme there since 2022, would you believe that till now, no certificate has been issued. They have no power to issue certificate, only the school which they are affiliated to possess that power.

PLS WHO HAS THE LINK TO NIGERIA AIRFORCE SECONDARY SCHOOL, MY ONLY GIRL HAS BEEN DISTURBING ME THAT SHE WANTS TO BE A PILOT IN FUTURE. 😂 Not funny anymore, we can perhaps take it up from there, or who knows the best way of getting her on track, she has two more years to graduate from primary school. Thank you in anticipation.

I also did my PGDE, I was given attestation, I have my certificate right now.
As for affiliation, it is not new that only institution they are affiliated can issue certificate.
Former college of education( Ignatius Ajuru University was once upon a time affiliated to UI, most of them used statement of result for a very long period of time.
It depends on several factors such sponsor, flexibility & course of study.
If you want to study education related courses while doing your job full time NTI is good, but if you want non- education courses, you have a sponsor, then go to regular!

What did you hear about National Teachers' Institute.

Would you advise anyone to run a Teachers Training program at the school?

Those that studied there, how is the school?

What are your thoughts on the school?

I created this thread yesterday and I didn't know it would be brought to Front page today.

I am glad the Moderators brought it to Front page to gain wider attention and engagement from people.

I am glad for the Insights, knowledge and hidden truths being revealed about National Teachers'Institute (N.T.I).

People's stories here will go a long way in guiding innocent students now and in the future who are looking to take up a Teacher Training in Nigeria.

A Federal Government Agency like N.T.I needs to do better. These stories here does not speak well of such a Federal Government Agency.

Students can't continue to suffer this way.

Nigeria is already hard enough for most people.

In summary, I think it's best if you want to run a Teacher Training in Nigeria that is very flexible and convenient for a working class individual with no delays in getting results and original certificates, National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), which is a Federal University is the BEST Option.

If you are in Abuja, take the issue to Berekete family and have some of your mate's to go with you with evidences.
You can also contact Arisetv, Channeltv and others on this.

I am currently running a PGDE program with them. And, if you ask me, one thing decision i ever regret taking is choosing them instead of going to for a proper university or better still, choose another school.

I am convinced the program is created for extortion. The Lecturers and coordinators are greedy, selfish and extremely selfish.

Reading through the comments here, I sincerely feel i have wasted my resources because I don't understand why i have to g through all these unnecessary stress, pay what is ad what is not and still end up not getting my certificate on time.
