The Registrar of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Professor Ishaq Oloyede, has advised Nigerian students to seek to gain demonstrable skills in addition to their education as university degrees and certificates will no longer be a guarantee to securing jobs.
Oloyede who gave the advice on Thursday during the convocation ceremony at the Kwara State University, Malete, said by acquiring skills beyond the classroom, Nigerian students will stand a better chance of creating employment for themselves.
While delivering the convocation lecture, titled “Learning, Unlearning, and Relearning -Prerequisites of the Digital Age,” Oloyede said the imperative of the triad in life cannot be overemphasized as the tonic that gives vitality to successful living in today’s information age.
