Overview

💡 Pro Tip: If you are looking for a flexible way to upgrade your teaching credentials, the 5-year Part-Time NCE or the 1-year TTC are excellent options that do not require the standard UTME score. For NCE Full-Time, ensure your O'Level combination meets the credit threshold (3 at one sitting or 4 at two). If you have minor deficiencies, the Pre-NCE program provides a verified absorption route into the regular NCE I program upon completion.

Admission Requirements

Applicants must possess a minimum of five (5) O'Level credit passes (WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB) including English and Mathematics, obtained in not more than two sittings (specifically 3 credits at one sitting or 4 credits at two sittings). Grade II Teacher’s Certificates (TCII) with 3 credits/merits are also accepted. For Business Education, a 'Credit' in English and a 'Pass' in Mathematics is compulsory. Technical Education requires credits in Mathematics and any two technical subjects (e.g., Technical Drawing, Auto Mechanics). Agricultural Education requires credits in Biology/Agric Science and a pass in Chemistry.

Direct Entry Rules

Candidates for the Technical Teacher’s Certificate (TTC) must possess a University Degree or HND in a relevant technical/commercial field (e.g., Engineering, Accountancy, Home Economics) with at least two years of post-qualification professional or teaching experience.

Post UTME Screening Format

All full-time NCE applicants must write the JAMB UTME. Candidates for Part-Time NCE, Pre-NCE, and TTC programs apply directly through the College Academic Office. The process includes a hybrid of online registration and physical credential verification on campus.
