CURRICULUM AND COURSE SPECIFICATIONS

FOR

NATIONAL INNOVATION DIPLOMA (NID) IN ELECTRICAL AND

ELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY

FOREWORD

This national curriculum which leads to the award of the National Innovative Diploma (NID) in Electrical and

Electronics Technology is designed to replace the disparate syllabuses used by the various institutions which produce

manpower in the different sub-sectors of social and industrial development nationwide.

The acute shortage of professionally trained manpower in this relatively new field in the Nigerian society and the

consequent “dire need to inculcate in the individual social development practitioner the ethics of the profession

through the acquisition of desirable values, knowledge and skills” informed the production of this national curriculum.

It is the belief of the Board that this curriculum and course specifications are the minimum required to produce sound

NID holders in social and industrial development if properly offered with the required resources (qualified teaching

staff in adequate number and mix, adequate consumable training materials, teaching aids), and qualified candidates

are admitted in to the programme.

I wish to express my deep appreciation to the promoters of this curriculum and the resources persons for their

invaluable contributions to the curriculum.

It is my hope that the curriculum, if properly implemented, will produce the technicians of our dream in Mechatronics

and Automation Technology.

7.0 FINAL YEAR NIDPROJECT

Final year (NID) students in this programme are expected to carry out a project work. The department should make its own

arrangement of schedules for project work. This could be on individual basis or group work. The project should, as much as possible

incorporate basic elements of design, drawing and complete fabrication of a marketable item or object that can be put to use. Project

reports should be well presented and properly supervised.

Every departmentin an institution is encouraged to make its own arrangement of schedules for project work and

supervision.

8.0 ACCREDITATION

11NID EET

GUIDANCE NOTE FORTEACHERS

The new curriculum is drawn in unit courses. This is in keeping with the provisions of the National Policy on Education,

which stress the need to introduce the unit course system, which enables a student who wishes to transfer the units already

completed in an institution of similar standard from which he/she istransferring.

In designing the units, the principle of the modular system by product has been adopted, thus making each of the

professional modules, when completed provides the student with technical operative skills, which can be used for

employmentpurposes.

As the success of the unit course system depends on the articulation of programmes between the institution and industry,

the curriculum content has been written in behavioural objectives, so that it is clear to all the expected performance of the

student who successfully completed some of the courses or the diplomates of the programme.

It is a deliberate attempt to further involve the staff of the department teaching the programme to write their own curriculum stating the

conditions existing in their institution under which performance can take place and to follow that with the criteria for determining an

acceptance level of performance.

The Academic Board of the Institution may vet departmental submission on the final curriculum. Our aim is to continue to see to it

that a solid internal evaluation system exists in each institution for enquiring minimum standard and quality of education in the

programmes offered throughout the polytechnic system.

The teaching of the theory and practical work should, as much as possible, be integrated. Practical exercises, especially those in

professional courses and laboratory work should not be taught in isolation from the theory. For each course, there should be a balance

of theory to practice in the ratio of 50:50 or 60:40 or thereverse.

12NID EET

GUIDELINES ON SIWESPROGRAMMES

For the smooth operation of the SIWES, the following guidelines shall apply:

RESPONSIBILITY FOR PLACEMENT OF STUDENTS

(a) Institutions offering the National Innovation Diploma programme shall arrange to place the students in industry. By end of

first quarter of each year, six (6) copies of the master-list showing where each student has been placed shall be submitted

to the Executive Secretary, National Board for Technical Education, which shall, in turn, authenticate the list and forward

it to the Industrial Training Fund, Jos.

(b) The placement officer should discuss and agree with industry on the following:

(i). A task inventory of what the students should be expected to experience during the period of attachment. It

may be wise to adopt the one already approved for each field.

(ii). There should be an industry based supervisor for the students during the period. It should be noted that the

final grading of the students during the period of attachment should be weighted more on the evaluation by

his/her industry-based supervisor.

EVALUATION OF STUDENTS DURING SIWES

In the evaluation of students, cognizance should be taken of the following items:

(a). Punctuality. (b). Attendance.

(c). General attitude to work. (d). Respect for authority.

(e). Interest in the field/technicalarea.

(f). Technical competence as a potential technician in his/her field.

13NID EET

GRADING OFSIWES

To ensure uniformity of grading seals, the institution should ensure that the uniform grading of students work, which has been agreed

to by Innovation Enterprise Institution, Polytechnics/Monotecnics and Similar Tertiary Institution is adopted.

xii

THE INSTITUTION-BASEDSUPERVISOR

The Institution-based supervisor should initial the log-book during each visit. This will enable him to check areas being met and also,

assist students having any problems regarding the specific assignments given to them by their industry-basedsupervisor.

FREQUENCY OF VISIT

Institution should ensure that students placed on attachment are visited within one month of their placement. Other visits shall be

arranged so that:

(i). There is another visit 6-8 weeks after the first visit;

(ii). A final visit in the last month of the industry attachment.

STIPEND FOR STUDENTS INSIWES

The rate of stipend payable shall be determined from time-to-time by the Federal Government after due consultation with the Federal

Ministry of Education, the Industrial Training Fund and the National Board for Technical Education.

14NID EET

SIWES AS A COMPONENT OF THE CURRICULUM

The completion of SIWES is important in the final determination of whether the student is successful in the programme or not. Failure

in the SIWES is an indication that the student has not shown interest in the field or has no potential to become a skilled technician in

his/her field. The SIWES should be graded on a fail or pass basis. Where a student has satisfied all other requirements but failed

SIWES, he may only be allowed to repeat another four months’ SIWES at his/her own expense. The SIWES shall carry 4.0 credit

units.
