Earning a degree qualification in Nigeria is becoming a lot easier. Initially it could only be earned from the university institution but now it could be earned at polytechnic institution.
Earning a degree certificate from a polytechnic could be a bit easier taken into consideration the competition involved in securing an admission to a university. A degree programme at the polytechnic institution in Nigeria is called Affiliate Degree Programme (ADP). It is so called because it is offer in conjunction with a reputed university and so the entry requirements for admission to a course on the programme are usually equivalent to the university entry requirements for same course.
An affiliate degree programme could not be offered without the approval of NUC, the Federal Ministry of Education and the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE).
