The Kogi State College of Education (Technical), Kabba has received full accreditation for its National Certificate in Education (NCE) programme.

This was contained in a statement signed by the school’s Public Relations Officer (PRO), Mr. O. Yunusa

According to the statement, the the 11 programmes presented for accreditation were all approved.

They include: Biology Education, Mathematics Education, Integrated Science And Computer Education.

Other programmes that got the nod are Physics, Chemistry, Fine and Applied Arts, Technical Education, Agricultural Education and Physical and Health Education.

While commenting on this, the provost of the institution, Dr Awo Olajide Komolafe, described this development as the "first of its kind for a new college to achieve the feat of clinching 100 percent success in accreditation outing among colleges of education in the country" and attributed it to the hard work and dedication of the staff as well as support from the government.

Due to some hitches experienced on JAMB change of course and institution portal lately, the 2016 JAMB Change of Course and Institution has been extended.

However, this extension will not be long. The official closing date for 2016 JAMB Change of course/institution is on Friday 13th, May 2016. There will be no further extension.

We understand that many candidates are waiting to know the cut-off marks of their respective institutions before making the decision on whether or not to go for change of course and institution. However, many of this institution usually wait until announcing their post-UTME sales of forms to make known their cut-off marks.

If you wait that long, you may have only succeeded in putting yourself in an unfavourable position because change of course and institution would have been very much over by that time.
