NOUN Graduates Now To Participate In NYSC And Law School

The Senate on Thursday amended the law establishing the National
Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) to enable graduates of the
institution participate in the National Youth Service Corps
(NYSC) scheme and the Law school.
This means that all graduates of the Open University can now go
for National Youth Service while those that graduated from law
can now go for Law school after graduation.
The amendment followed the clause by clause consideration of the
report of the Senate Committee on Tertiary Institutions and
TETFUND chaired by Senator Jibrin Barau (APC, Kano) on the
amendment of NOUN Act.
The review aligned the NOUN's Act with the requirements of the
Universities Miscellaneous Provisions (Amendment) Act 2012, the
law which regulate all Universities in the country
Barau said the amendment would address the perception of the
public about the University in respect of the word
correspondence, which gives the impression that the University
is not a full time University and as such seen as part time.
"These two concepts correspondence and part-time significantly
affect the way the public views the programs run by the
University.
"This has been the reason why the Law Graduates of the School
are not admitted into the Nigerian Law School as well as the
reason for the non inclusion of the graduates of the University
into the National Youth Service Corps Scheme, "he said.
Explaining further, he said law graduates of NOUN can now go to
the Nigerian law school and can be called to bar while graduates
of the institution can now go for NYSC.
