The National Teachers Institute (NTI), has announced the extension of deadline for registration process of its academic programmes to May 31, 2017.
Director-General of NTI, Prof. Garba Dahuwa-Azare, in a statement yesterday explained that the extension was to give interested students ample time to register for any programme of their choice and prepare adequately for the academic work.
He encouraged interested students yet to complete their registrations to take advantage of window to complete the exercise through their online registration portal, assuring them that all the programmes offered by NTI were duly approved by the relevant bodies.
The NTI boss restated the institute’s readiness and capability to mount and execute training workshops for states that might wish to use its services to upgrade and update the capacity of their teachers.
He said the recent memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed with the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), had begun to yield the expected result.
