Please, I couldn't find a thread on Nairaland where school administrators discuss, so I'll like to ask this question here.

For a teaching job, z t better to employ a B.SC graduate instead of B.Ed, NCE n CO?

I'm asking without bias please, but I've noticed, probably just in my area sha, that most of those that apply n have d relevant educational certificates don't know what they r doing. From VERY poor command of d English language to poor or no understanding of d subject they want to teach.

If there r school administrators in d house, whts your take on that?

If a local midwife is more competent and experienced-WITH PROOFS than a certified nurse, which of the two would you allow to 'midwife' u/ur spouse?

Therein lies ur answer!

It's a broad fields throughout the world but it seems we were only concern with solar and inverter in this part of the world.

I don't claim to know it all but I'm here to shed light and share from my knowledge.

All kinds of questions are welcome.

Hi baba11,

I'm looking forward to acquiring skills + (CCNA) certifications as a Network (Cisco) Engineer. With ur hindsight in ds field, can u recommend a very good IT school in Lagos where I can have core practical oriented training. I've heard if NIIT, New Horizon, IIHT, HIIT etc, which of these or any other one will u recommend as best of the lot in ds regards.
Thanks 4 ur reply in anticipation.

Hi bro,

I did mine at New Horizons, and they are currently on promo, its 66k now. Grab that chance. And the cost for the cisco exam is about $350 or so..

Good luck..

Hi Adura,
I'm looking forward to acquiring skills + (CCNA) certifications as a Network (Cisco) Engineer. With ur hindsight in ds field, can u recommend a very good IT school in Lagos where I can obtain hardcore practical oriented training . I've heard if NIIT, New Horizon, IIHT, HIIT etc, which of these or any other one will u recommend as best of the lot in ds regards.
Thanks 4 ur reply in anticipation.

IamaNigerianGuy:
You will need to find out which you are good at and have an interest in. Look up the various options and watch videos on youtube. That will give you an idea of what they are about.
In Nigeria it would appear network engineers make the best pay for now (CCNA etc) but that may change in the future.
As for the best school, look for one that is accredited and ask alumni of their experiences.
Best of luck!

Thanks a lot

IamaNigerianGuy:
You wont go far with your hasty generalizations.

1. Web development is where the action is right now all over the world and far into the foreseeable future.
2. Machine learning is done to meet a need. We have not yet reached that level.
3.Machine learning is expensive; Nigerians do not have spare cash. It costs non-trivial amounts of money to set up a decent cluster and when you do that where is the data-set to run? You require huge data set s to make valid conclusions. There is simply no data in most cases. When you gain the knowledge how do you monetize your knowledge?
4. Game development is expensive and is a thing for well funded teams. Nigerians do not play games enough for development to be commercially viable.
5. Embedded systems development is specific to industry. Do you see any industries commissioning developers in Nigeria ?

Stop running down your countrymen.
It has little to do with laziness and more attributable to market demand.
There are brilliant coders in Nigeria that will run rings round you and many google /fb/ engineers in tests of ability. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14071540
The average American developer will struggle to survive much less produce any work under Nigerian conditions.
Finally, there are people doing ML in their private work-spaces. They just do not want to advertize. Ask the right questions and maybe they will respond.

Pls, i wish to venture in2 d IT field. Can u kindly give a candid advice on the following:

1. If u are to recommend any of 'Web development' , 'Networking', 'programming' , 'Multimedia' or any other one u know to ur blood brother to study, which one(s) would it/they be, and why?

2. Which IT school would u recommend as best suited to equip me in ds field(s) (I've heard of NIIT, HIIT, IIHT etc)

Thanks in anticipation of ur candid reply.

The way some whites go about showing their racist tendency is quiet worrisome . The girl's dad, an American, says he won't attend her graduation or pay her fees anymore, all because she went out with a black guy. He told his daughter "go live with the Nigger".

Are you/we not being hypocritical? Huun??

How many umuleris will allow dr sons to marry uguleris (&vice versa ) talkless of other tribes?

How many Egbas will allow dr sons to married ijebus (& vice versa) taljless of other tribes??

Maybe we should remove d log in our own eyes first before we attempt to remove d specks in d eyes of others!

When you hear that she has been arrested for defamation of character now, you will come here and start spewing trash.

oyienootieno:
So you think her lawyers are so dumb not to have arranged a back up documents for settlement outside court? Men our education system seriously need to be reformed .

@oyie, its either that (underlined) or NL is filled with kiddos or we just plain conscience-dead in ds clime.

forMom:
Confused girl
You finally got tired.

She said some of her family members and friends rejected her and were ashamed of her which means her people did not even believe her

If all her claims were true ,at least her FAM or at least one person in her family woulda stood by her.
Lying liar.






Some people right now

dotcomnamename:
Na so una dey fail exam. So she should not move forward because of sex scandal? So because she said this is new me she's was telling lies?
Smh.

May God help us, like ASAP.
Something similar occurred in s/Africa and d M.O.G. was first arrested, but in NGR, d accuser hounded irrespective of d tons of evidence d lady provided.
Its so appalling. Even fellow ladies castigate her.
And this issssh isn't just happening; remember d coza 'MOG' vz Ese? Our coza 'MOG' promised a 'robust reply'(sic) and its almost 6 yrs and all we hearvis kpim (silence). The girl is a confirmed atheist now!

True, d Bible says ''Touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm''. The big question is who is His anointed, and who is His prophet? If a voodoo/soothsayer/wizard, in order 2 #fill his belly opens a church, bandy d Holy Bible and 'preaches' Gods word, does dt make him God's 'anointed/prophet'?

Candid reply/response is expected from all and sundry!

5DMindset:
She is sincere. She is human. The mistake many people make, is getting popular on social media, cos I know many private citizens who are worse that this lady. They fucck per minute and smoke crack and sk and no one knows them, needless to say, judge them. This lady and the pastor had sexual intercourse, the Pastor goes free, because he is a Man of God and a man, while the lady is called a LovePeddler because she is a woman and not a woman of God. It so biased, and women are judged sentimentally. Looking at the core of this issue, I see a struggling woman who has gone through all ills and is still trying to figure out the sincerity in life and of life. But what she is to come to terms with, is that Life is NOT a fare game.

You must live your life the way you want, devoid of what the world thinks. That is FREEDOM and LIBERTY.

Fela40:
Just choose a career path and develop yourself in it.

If programming... Become a master of various languages

If networking... become a pro

If Web development... Become a pro

If Multimedia... become a pro.

Nice one!

Azerbella:
She is still in prison?
Wooow.
When was she tried? Who sentenced her?!!

Omg...Nigeria is such a bleeped up nation.

misano:
Not funny at all. 4 how long will she be locked up.

Wow, and 2 think ds issh is just 4 'libel' o.

bullabong:
Fake pastors that have no love for their congregation let alone an outsider.

U are wrong there.
At least they have love 4 their sheeples' pockets.

Amebo1:
They have granted her bail now, but she is yet to fulfill her bail conditions. Hence her continuous detention

sisisioge:
Na which kind stringent bail condition them give her? Whew!

One million naira bail 4 libel abi?
The pastor+judge try well~well nor be small

Fela40:
Different fields bro.

1) it is difficult to pick the most sought after because I keep seeing various vacancies on so many branches of ICT.

But

Programming

Multimedia

Web Developer

Networking

These are the ones that are needed majorly now.

2) The most lucrative depends on who hires you. A programmer's starting salary for the poorest firm is about 80k in Nigeria plus other side jobs.

ICT depends on interest. So you need to know where your interest lies. That is why they have counsellors in various IT firms.

So I wouldn't wana recommend because I don't know your area of strength.

Thanks.

Thanks 4 ur time.
Really do appreciate.
Lastly, which one/ones did u study in iiht and which do u propose to venture into in d nearest future.
Thanks.

Fela40:
lol... Bro I can't explain all of them here.

We have various branches of ICT

Microsoft (MCSE... MCSA... etc)

Networking (N+.. CCNA... CCNA... CCNP... CND... MSCE... CEH)

Programming ( Java... C++... C#)

Mobile App development

Oracle

Web Design and Development

Multimedia....

Depending on the career you wish to take up from... you focus on it and achieve it.

All you need is the zeal to learn. Once you are through... You will smile at yourself!!

Hmmmm........, I really do appreciate ur willingness to offer probono advice. God bless u real good!

Out of d above realms of IT u listed above, which will u recommend as:
(1) d most sought after?
(2) d most lucrative?
(3) As a top-notch ICT-savvy person, which one/ones of these {starting from your most preferred if more than one} will u recommend to ur best friend/brother?
Thanks in anticipation of ur candid advice.

Seriously?
And d end result?

Why dem no dey go all these interior villages go preach naw? Those old men and women sit there 24hrs in their shrine disrupting people's destinies anyhow for city and our men of God send.

Dem nor get dollars/pounds nah!

This bloggers sha, dem sabi find trouble.

redbeans:
5. They will rub your name in the mud amongst your friends
these 'evil angels' will 'rub oil on your white brocade.' without shame, they will tell your friends and family that you are not taking care of them. You paid the rent, buy bags of rice,beans & garri. they are not satisfied. Just maggi and soup they will use their money to buy,we will not rest. yet they preach equality [fake feminists]

This is majorly d fault of d male gender.
While dating, in other to impress her, guys go overboard with overspending even when its beyond their means thereby creating a false sense of 'security' to d lady. After d wedding he abruptly stops dashing -which was certainly one of d reasons Auntie fall in 'love' (sic) with Uncle

Alondrah:
A nagging wife or girlfriend / a cheating one. Make your choice. Some things are not the worst things ever

redbeans:
the former is worse to me. Imagine her telling me: 'i'm just managing you' as in eh...

@Alondr, Candidly, I'll go for NEITHER of d 2!
Its like choosing BTW d devil and d deep blue sea!
..... All na die!
Nagging: Delilah so nagged Samson till he was provoked to let out his secret!
Cheating: STDs, 'Magun', jealousy-induced murder (eg King David vs Uraih/Bathsheba) etc.

Abeg, on choosing either of d 2 evils, i 'd rather pass!!!

Thank u!

@redbean, wait till u burst her red handed backing it up to d Maiguard, then repeat what u've just said. Shikena!

Lir

drdanny:
It's only on Nairaland that people will hear one side of a story and jump like Olympians into poorly deduced conclusions...

Always listen to both sides and have sense to analyse critically before jumping into conclusions Nairalanders

Abeg, nor waste ya tyme.
Even when dey hear from both sides, since their minds were predestinedly set to believe/disbelieve, they'll still jump into d same biased conclusion.

"But in the build up to the election, some people decided to introduce religion and ethnicity into the campaign in such a manner that not only hurt the PDP in the north but was actually helping to mobilise our opponents against us.”

Gbam!
Thank God ds is coming from d horse's mouth!

Adexy4us:
So which school in Ogudu GRA pay up to 200k as u earlier said? lol
LFG- lead-forte gate

200k 4 Ogudu........
I doubt it. And 2 think those 2 schools (LFG & Mictech) are among d tops in dt area.

Prolly d schools on d island- dowen, LBIS, AIS etc but most def not in ogudu

Generica:
No be small thing o. Many of their security, teachers and admin know me very well. I remember when one of the admin had to resign when she was transferred to the location of their newly opened secondary school - Juilliard Academy. She said she had a tender baby in her arms, but the director no send anybody o.

Lolz.
Actually, anyone thinking of working under such strenuous condition do so cuz dr 's no option, and as we all know dt half bread is better than puff-puff. U bid ur time there till a better/ more flexible offer surfaces

Generica:
....
there's too much work and teachers are not permitted to engage in home lessons o. Na automatic sack be that o. The owner of the school is no-nonsense woman o.

Generica:
....... only problem with that school is overwork and closing late (for teachers). I see them going home on my way to my Church still within the GRA, around 6pm ooo

Adexy4us:
6pm ke? exactly my headache in my present school which we even close by 5pm ....that closing time is killing

Hmmmm......
By d time one closes by 6pm night don fall nah! Which means ur useful hours have bn stylishly siphoned
To make matters worst, pp is prohibited.

I know their type, from experience. With d 100k they feel they own ur destiny.

Issokay!

enairaprof:
Good morning everyone.
My sister is really anxious as she would be going for a test/interview in few days time.
She applied as a food and nutrition teacher.
What should she expect for the test?
Will there be practicals too?

Teachers in the house should pls help out.
Thank you

She should expect written tests:theory and obj and practicals/alternative to practicals as well. Definitely, MT follows.

An2elect2:
The church of God does not receive tithe. All those collecting tithes are liars and robbers and they obey no one but their father, the devil.

Pls, just 4 d purpose of clarity, is it dt d church is not to collect tithe from d congregation? As in, Christians are not to pay tithes? If yes, can u cite scriptural reference(s).
Thanks.
Happy Easter!
