obioraval:


Yes you can.

ademoladeji:


You're so on-point.


NSE is just like money-making association that only believes in your pocket and not your brain.

I still remember what I experienced during my first attempt at NSE Lagos. Imagine someone marking me down because the Oba of the village I come from insulted him. He practically told me I was gonna fail and truly, I failed the interview even after answering correctly 7 out of 8 questions.
Sat beside me was a mate that couldn't answer correctly 1 question except know where he works- Deltafrik.

My advice has always been DO NOT apply for NSE in LAGOS... Go to places like Akure, Osogbo, Ado-Ekiti. #LessWahala #LessMoney


I paid around 300k to be MNSE... My COREN is on it's way n hopefully by the end of the 2nd quarter, I shld be a R.COREN...

vansledge:

after paying all these will u pay for COREN again?

ademoladeji:


COREN is no as super expensive as NSE....

Average of 50k but there's additional 35k for COREN assembly

vansledge:
can we do away from registering with NSE and go to COREN direct?

ademoladeji:

Yes!!! Go to www.coren.gov.ng

einsteino:

It’s about time a Nigerian Design Consultancy start taking the design lead on our bridge, rail, highway and building projects. We cannot afford to continue procuring engineering services from abroad.

The Nigerian resident Julius Berger also needs to up their game. The 29 billion naira (145 million dollars) spent on building the [b]cable-stayed 1.4km long lekki-Ikoyi link bridge [/b]will build a grandeur and iconic suspension bridge for that bridge span. Julius Berger needs competition from another major residential Design Consultancy.

When a country allows foreign Engineers to come in and design her project, such country will be exposed to an underdevelopment of local Engineers, Capital flight, less employment in the Engineering sector and will also face National Security Issues (the country that built the structures know what the capacity of your infrastructures are and can use them during war time, God forbid!!). Our Engineering Graduates and Technicians are intelligent enough and what they need is the appropriate experience for them to be the best they can possibly be.

It's not about the Professional institution (NSE, Coren, ICE, IStructE) recognition but what an Engineer can deliver, the accreditations will chase you when you have the right experience

kevoh:

Yes Sir, I know. I just prefer having the cash set aside before embarking on such journey. Hope I can contact you in due time for some info and guide and will not be a bother to your possibly busy schedule?

Bhugarious:
I am proud to be an engineer, for my profession takes care of world's major industries and adds value to humanity. Without engineers this global village would be likened to tea without sugar.

essoo:


You wouldn't get anything done with this mentality, trust me! I once started out like you!
Just start and you would be amazed where you find yourself!

essoo:


Sorry to burst your bubble, that bridge is not even a cable-stay bridge.. those cable-like stuffs are actually rods and are strictly aesthetic; they perform no structural role whatsoever! Its a reinforced concrete deck bridge!

- EssOO (Structural Engineer_ Coincidentally witnessed the construction on this bridge from piling to commissioning from waterside Lekki)
