EKET NSE VISITS NYSC CAMP
EKET NSE VISITS NYSC CAMP
T he Nigerian Society of Engi-
neers, visited the NYSC camp at Nsit-Atai L.G.A, on
the 20 August 2014, to carry out a
sensitization campaign for young engineering graduates to uphold
the ethics of the profession in
their service year. Leading the
NSE team was the coordinator of the Young Engineers Forum of Ni-
geria, Eket, Mr. Lawrence Akubue,
who informed the young graduates of the need to register with NSE as
graduate member during their ser-
vice year. They were also enlight-ened about Young Engineers Fo-
rum of Nigeria (YEFON) which is
an arm of the Nigeria Society of
Engineers with a mandate to carter for its young members. The
speaker, highlighted that the YE-
FoN offers a forum where young professionals can be prepared for
the future, pointing out that it is a
platform for students and young
engineers to come together to dis-cuss professional development
and career options. They were in-
formed that the forum became necessary because students and
graduate from university seeking a
satisfying career, are not aware of the benefits a professional society
like NSE can provide for them. Mr.
Gabriel Okoli, YEFoN Secre-
tary, who also addressed the corps members, highlighted
the aim of the visit which
was to inspire young gradu-ates to develop interest in
engineering, and, in doing
so, recognize the importance
and excitement of engineer-ing as a career. He reiterated
on the need to have a forum
for Young Engineers to pro-mote and influence engineer-
ing development in all its
ramifications in Nigeria, as well as to promote the ex-
change of ideas and engi-
neering knowledge. The corps members were ex-
pected in turn to get to regis-
ter as graduate members of NSE and also to join their
respective engineering sub-
divisions. On this note , the
requirements for each cate-gory of membership in NSE

was spelt, laying emphasis on graduate mem-bership. The corps member were given the op-
portunity to raise vital issues as regards the
challenges they face as young professionals, which borders on the employment rate and pro-
fessional development. They also made certain
demands regarding their welfare, requesting for more guidance on registration. They also de-
manded for NYSC placement that is based on
profession, calling for more technical training
for graduate members to prepare them for the job market, as well as establishing a job desk
for them. The idea of Job creation through the
Engineering Innovation Initiatives was also an-nounced as one among numerous benefits that
NSE can offer. The NSE who acknowledged
these challenges assured them that the issues
raised would be appropriately reported to the NSE for onward review. They were advised to
