Basically u need a pgd to qualify for masters when crossing to another field of study. you as well go for it in a field you fancy to empower yourself. Degrees are not only utilitarian, self discovery may necessitate some research.
Keep the flag flying pls
Guy depend on what you are after. PGD is a degree that is use to upgrade yourself, if an individual result falls in third class.
It is also use to change your area of specialization, to another field. If your vision is different to that course read in the university.
Thanks.
if an individual falls within the third class range,would it affect employment prospects

I strongly agree with Kingchrist's view, if you ask me.
Ogagaedewor,are you indirectly saying that you graduated with a 3rd Class or that you are planing to fall in that category? Abeg be plain jo, you dey shame?
PGD and Master degree add advance to you not only changing your area of specialization to another field but stand a chance of having a good job.

Ogagaedewor dnt worry 2much about dat,it doesnt matter wat u graduated wit,wit God all things are possible,so just do wat u want 2 do n forget wat peoply say.wish d best.
PGD is not only for HND and 3rd class graduates. It's mainly a programme obtained beyond ones first degree. It could be masters or PHD. It's only in Nigeria with thier shortsightedness that PGD is seen as a program for the HND and 3rd class holders. In countries like scottland, you can go for your masters program even with your HND. PGD is also obtained if one wants to change his/her course of study after his/her first degree. For instance you want to go for teaching and you hold Bsc, you must go for your pgd in education.
The importance of PGD is vast. It depends on your prospect. If you limit yourself to what you have at present, you may not need it but if want improvement, then you need not being told how important it is. Any thing education is important at any stage in life.
Thanks.

pgd or no pgd God will always favor those who are destined to suceed.an uncle of mine made third class,he is doing very well without any shady deal.another one did hnd, he made so much money in shipping bcos he had integrity,another one made ist class,he retired as a slave .tell me who blesses if not God.
it really depends on wat u want. i mean ur focus. forget d third class bullshit! its valuable. one stands a better chance wit a high degree in the labour market. it gives u an edge over others. tell who would u rather offer a job: a first degree holder or one wit a masters degree, both in similar fields? do the maths!
Really, no knowlege is waste.but the truth of the matter is that pgd is a pre-requisite for those with HND B4 GOING FOR master degree ,as well as third class holder.(Mostly applicable in Nigeria unlike other countries).U can also do PGD to increase ur chances.

As the name implies, postgraduate diploma;it bridges the divide between the the first degree and the second degree in case there are reasons you can go directly for your masters after your first degree. However, I have seen princes and princesses trek while slaves ride on hoarses. Pray thta you be bless. It is the blessings of the Lord that maketh rich and it added no sorrow to it. God's favour is the watchword.
PGD in Nigeria Education sector is a pre-requisite for every HND holder and those with third class degree in some of our Universities especially in University of Lagos.But we still have some Universities that allow HND holder to proceed on Masters programme.Meanwhile,it is a degree added to one's profile.
hello, do anybody have an information on how to go about the PGD programm in unilag. i graduated with 3rd class in Mathematics.pls i need ur help
PGD is good bcos there is no limit to what one can really learn on earth.I advise that u go 4 it queen cos u will be enhancing ur chances.I just finished my masters(UI) and i tell u am just starting cos am going higher God willing.The advice that somebody finished with 3rd class or HND and he or she is successful does not mean u could be as successful.Besides,if u ask that successful person ,he or she will have story to tell u-whether the promotion is not as rapid as those with higher qualifications or frustration 4rm mgt.Use ur head and be a better person.Dont wait till u get married. :)
nice topic, as we all know by now that PGD is an added qualification those who wan tot divert from there original field of study to another field of study (say from science to the social sciences). secondly for those who have third class to move to get there masters,and also as stated above,this also applies to those with HND,only that it enable them do there masters in whatever field they feel they can fit in to.Pally,there is no written way about life in black and white,it's just for us to read in between the lines and know what we want. Success come to those who perceive it and want i,not necessarily being ambitious,and with God on your side,the stars will arrange as rongs on a ladder,to elevate you to heights unimaginable.
Wel pgd by my opinion is an avenue for makingup so that one can qualify to proceed to the next level. that is to masters degree for those having HDN or 3rd class or pass degree. but realistically does not have much impact in terms of recruitment but is good if u happens to be in those levels to move up. just move upupupupup thanks.
PDG IS A LUCRATIVE QUALIFICATION. IF U HAVE IT, U HAVE A BIG FEATHER TO UR CAP! THERE4 THE QUESTION IS IRRELEVANT. ONE DAY, SOMEBODY WOULD ASK: IS UNIVERSITY NECESSARY? NIGERIANS, STOP BEING SLUGGISH AND MIOPIC ABT EDUCATION. WHAT COUNTS MOSTLY IS ABILITY TO DEFEND UR DEGREES. SOME OF US (GRADUATES) ARE ACADEMIC NUISSANCE. IT'S A PITY. AND IT'S SUCH PEOPLE THAT ASK STUPID QUESTIONS. BE WARNED. 08034515734
