How To Have An Unforgettable NYSC Camp Experience

How To Have An Unforgettable NYSC Camp Experience

Posted on August 2, 2025 By CampusTimesNG No Comments on How To Have An Unforgettable NYSC Camp Experience

Having an unforgettable NYSC Camp experience is the hallmark of being in the NYSC Orientation Camp. Bet me, you will live to tell your story again and again until old age. So how you spend your Camp experience is important.

In one of our previous article, we discussed the best States to serve as a youth Corper in Nigeria. This post will introduce us to the next article episode ” how to have an unforgettable NYSC camp experience”.

The NYSC Camp is a compulsory three (3) weeks orientation programme you must pass through before you are later deployed or posted to your Place of Primary Assignment (PPA).

How To Have An Unforgettable NYSC Camp Experience

Every Corp members that go through this compulsory Twenty-One (21) days orientation programme must always have one or few stories to tell.

It also depends on what’s important to you. Some corps members narrate their Camp experience with so much enthusiasm while others think it is not so interesting.

5 Ways To Have An Unforgettable NYSC Camp Experience

This article will highlight Five (5) ways you can have an unforgettable and a productive Camp experience.

1. Join SAED

The NYSC a few years ago introduced Skill Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development to the list of orientation programs for corps members in the camp.

The SAED has helped a lot of corps members to develop one skill or the other. This is a platform for you to learn graphics, interior decorations, fashion designing, make-up, bead-making, fish farming etc. Lots of graduates have become self-employed through SAED.

2. Join a group

Another way to enjoy your NYSC camp experience is by joining a group. There are so many groups and associations you can join in the camp. Do you have interest in music, Information dissemination and social media? Join the Orientation Broadcasting Service OBS) team and the NYSC band. Including HIV AID Awareness Programme, NGOs etc.

There are also cultural groups as well as religious associations. The Muslim Corpers Association of Nigeria (MCAN) and the Nigeria Christian Corpers Fellowship (NCCF) are so popular on camp. You can join your religious group to improve your spirituality and at the same time have an exciting experience in camp.

3. Connect With Friends In NYSC Camp

This might look simple but NYSC is a good place to make some great friends. You’ve got to know what is good for you and what is bad for you. I know that not everyone can fall into the category of friends, but trust me, getting good friends can boost your networking skill and great partnership in the long run.

4. Run A Business On Camp

While many think going to NYSC camp will require you to spend the money you don’t have for three weeks, a business-minded graduate like you should ignore such a mindset and think of how to make money on camp.

Think of selling Airtime and Data. Uhm… what about Photography! Photography is probably the most popular business in NYSC camp. If you have a camera and you are very good at photography, you’ll certainly make some cool cash before leaving the camp.

5. Campfire Night

In the last week of the orientation programs, NYSC will let you have lots of fun activities that will make you want to come for another orientation. One of such activities to watch out for is the campfire night.

It’s your choice to hang out with friends and enjoy the experience as it’s one of the most interesting activities in the camp. You need to see the fun that comes with this activity. This seems to be the corps members happiest moment. But, be careful too so you won’t mar your experience.
