About NABTEB Modular Trade Photographic certicate in Photographic Practice

The National Business and Technical Examination Board (NABTEB) is the Federal Government assessment and certification Authority in Nigeria for operatives, craftsmen and technicians level. At the moment the Board examines about 40 trades which have been broken into employable modules by National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) and Photographic Practice is one of the trades. The Photographic Practice curriculum by NABTEB makes it possible to produce technical skilled photographers simply by completing the trade modules. After completing the modules and taking the exam, the student is issued the National Technical Certificate (Modular) in Photographic Practice.

Advantages of having NABTEB modular trade certificate in Photographic Practice

• Apart from recognizing the potentials of photographers, the NABTEB Modular Trade Certificate is designed to empower them and channel their resources towards sustainable national development.
• The Modular Trade Certificate Examination offers a golden opportunity for talented and skilled photographers who could not be gainfully employed or duly promoted for lack of acceptable educational qualification.
• Skill acquisition: You get trained in photography as a trade and become an expert in it.
• Gainful employment and career development. Having the NABTEB Modular Trade Certificate in Photographic Practice will boost your job opportunities and could possibly allow you to demand more pay. An employer is far more likely to choose the candidate with the certificate over the candidate who does not.
• Economic self reliance, Wealth creation and Self-employment: A skill acquired man is a self-employed man. A self-employed person can never go hungry because the skill he acquired provides food for him/her on a daily basis. But one who lacks skill acquisition will find it difficult to be self-employed because he/she has nothing to offer.

The exam is very easy to pass and it is practical base. You have full guarantee of passing the exam. It is written in one day and it is aimed at testing your practical knowledge of the trade.

Photo trip with my students to Bower’s Tower Tourist Centre, Ibadan

Photography is life. Had a nice time shooting with my students at Bower’s Tower Tourist Centre, Ibadan. It was fun, interesting and very educative for me as a photo journalist. The trip afforded me a rare opportunity of seeing the city of Ibadan from another perspective and a unique angle. Standing at the highest point in Ibadan city (Bower’s Tower at the top of Oke-Are, one of the seven hills in Ibadan), I saw what I have never seen before concerning Ibadan landscape. It reminded me of similar trip to Idanre hill, Akure in Ondo State.

Thanks to my photography students for making me to join them in this trip despite my very busy schedule. I took these selfies with my smartphone.
