The Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria has barred lecturers and tutors in all Nursing Schools, Colleges and Universities offering Nursing program from filling Council forms on behalf of their students. In a circular, dated 19th of September and addressed to HODs, Department of Nursing in all Universities offering BNSC Degree Programme, Provosts/Principals Colleges/Schools of Nursing and Midwifery in all States and Abuja and Coordinators of all Post Basic Nursing Programmes, the Council stated that all students should be allowed to fill their forms by themselves so as to avoid error in their personal data.
Below is the content of the circular as sighted:
Re: Filling of Personal Data Forms By Students in Our Training Institutions At the 41st General meeting of the Board of the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria, held 11th-13th July, 2017, it was directed that the following information should be communicated to all the training institutions in the Country on the above subject matter.
• The Council observed with dismay the alarming rate of errors in the personal data forms of students from various institutions in the Country received at the Council Offices at all levels.
• Henceforth, Students are to be allowed to fill in the Council forms in their own handwriting
• Lecturers, teachers and focal persons are to desist from filling any Council form for any student, as you will be accountable for any error to this effect.
It will be appreciated if you would kindly bring this information to the attention of all concerned.
Thank you.
