Professional Certification Courses For NYSC Corp Members In Nigeria

Posted on August 27, 2025 By CampusTimesNG 36 Comments on Professional Certification Courses For NYSC Corp Members In Nigeria

You too can take advantage of LOW FEES charged for Professional Certification courses for NYSC Corp members in Nigeria. This article will be of great benefit to you and guide you on the choice of professional certification Programs to acquire during your service year.

To complete NYSC without building necessary values to yourself, at least by acquiring a professional certification, would be very wasteful, it would be a pitiable situation to ever think your first degree is sufficient to sustain you during your job search, you sure need an additional certification.

I call it job search because after you have completed your one year compulsory service to your dear nation, the next is to start job hunting to sustain yourself. I will also love to say here that as a graduate, who has completed NYSC, it will be shameful to go back to your parents or any relative and start depending on them for your upkeep. Please never do that.

Truth be told, what you call first degree is just like a candy in the confectionery store that is sold 3(three) for $2 (two Dollars), from statistical survey, 75 out of every 100 persons you come across daily are graduate, out of the 75, 45 have their masters degree, that makes it even more compelling that you build more value to yourself by acquiring a professional certification.

What Do You Know About Professional Certification?

In a way, you may be wondering what i mean by professional certification, nowhere it is, you will often come across some employment requirements, some companies would refer to it as Additional Qualification,

You would often see something like, ‘additional qualification will be an advantage’ by this they mean a candidate with a professional certification will be more useful to them and as such will be more considered for the job.

What is Professional Certification?

Professional Certification is a process of acquiring an additional and relevant qualification and skills that will make a you more like an expert in your relevant field and, more useful in a given industry, by this, a person proves that he or she has the knowledge, experience and skills to perform a specific job and the tasks in which they have been trained.

Few Professional Certification Courses For NYSC Corp Members

You can acquire a professional certification based on your field of study or except you want to divert from the training you received at higher institution, if you in the field of accounting, you can consider running an ICAN (Institute of Chattered Accountants of Nigeria) program, if you studied nursing science, think of doing PON (Peri-Operative Nursing),

If computer science, consider Oracle Database certification or SISCO, if your field is Management Science, consider going for NIMC (Nigeria Institute of Management Chattered), Electrical Engineering Students can go for Instrumentation and control, HSE, among others.

You can read more on professional certifications in my next post. I do hope you have learn more about Professional Certification Courses For NYSC Corp Members and how important it is for you to get certified in addition to your first degree,

I believe this post was helpful to you as your build value to yourself during your NYSC and also assist your to define a carrier path. Feel free to drop your comments and share this with your friends and loved ones.

      Hello Joy,
      Please do all you can to register for the most relevant professional course before you round-up with your Youth Service, because, you may not enjoy access to reduce fees once you are out of the youth service.

      Hi Adams Sharu,
      How do you do? You stand a lot of advantages to enroll for Professional Courses in Nigeria while you are in the Service of the NYSC.
      Personally, during my service in 2011 had the opportunity utilized. Make sure you are studying in an Institution recognized by the government, especially in a Federal or State Institution. For Instance, you may want to enroll for ICAN.

    Good Morning Sir,
    As a result of the pandemic ongoing which is gradually reducing the months expected to undergo the NYSC, is it possible to still undergo this PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATION COURSES knowing full well that the date of school resumption,etc is yet to be announced?
    For example we have less than 8months to complete the one year scheme(Batch A1 2020 precisely).
    Thanks alot Sir!

      Please ensure you enroll fast enough as a Youth Corper. Reason is that there are better advantages you stand to enjoy as a NYSC Corper than when out of service.

      Hi Ajayi, its a real good passion you have with building your skills during your National Youth Service year.
      Your certification for Digital marketing through Google is an International rating for you. You might want to ask other Youth Corps colleagues of new professional courses they know about.
      But, have you also considered THINGS YOU CAN DO DURING NYSC SERVICE YEAR?

      Hi Sophie, this is simple. Choose a professional course that’s relevant to what you studied.
      Approach the office for the Professional programme, fill the application form, indicate that you are a corps member with your Identification card, pay for the fees, and then your programme starts.

      No, Saphiya, your posting doesn’t affect your access to the professional programme. Usually the study centre for most Professional courses takes place at the state capital of the State of deployment. Except if there are no other, study centres in other cities near to your residence, you should find the location of the study centre, get the Study timetable after registration, and strike a balance with your Course facilitator.

      It would be great if you study a language course. Such as: French, German, Chinese etc. It would give you a big edge among competitors.
