NYSC Releases Guidelines for 2024 Batch ‘C’ Stream II Mobilization

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has unveiled its guidelines for the 2024 Batch ‘C’ Stream II mobilization. These directives are vital for tertiary institutions and graduates to ensure a smooth and error-free mobilization process. Below are the details segmented into key blocks for easy reading and understanding.

Senate/Academic Board List Upload

Portal Opening Dates

The NYSC portal will be open for the upload of approved Senate/Academic Board lists from:

• Start Date: December 11, 2024
• End Date: December 13, 2024

This is the first step for institutions to upload their eligible graduates’ details.

Role of Student Affairs Officers (SAOs)

SAOs are responsible for:

• Data Accuracy: Ensuring all details are accurate and free of errors during upload.
• Timely Submission: Completing uploads within the stipulated time to avoid complications.

Errors or delays in this phase may jeopardize the mobilization process for graduates.

Hard Copy Submission Requirements

Submission Timeline

Institutions must physically submit the hard copies of their approved lists between:

• Start Date: December 16, 2024
• End Date: December 18, 2024

Submission Location

The submissions are to be delivered in person at the:

• NYSC Directorate Headquarters (NDHQ)
• Address: Yakubu Gowon House, Plot 416, Tigris Crescent, Aguiyi Ironsi Street, Maitama District, Garki, Abuja.

Authentication of Documents

All hard copies must meet the following standards:

1. Stamped and Signed: Each page must bear the institution’s stamp and signature.
2. Indemnified by Registrar: The documents must be certified by the Registrar to confirm authenticity.

Institutions failing to comply with these directives risk their graduates being excluded from the mobilization process.

What This Means for Graduates

Stay Engaged with Your Institution

Graduates are encouraged to:

• Regularly check with their school’s Student Affairs Office to confirm their names are on the approved list.
• Report discrepancies immediately to avoid being left out.

Critical Impact of Compliance

Without proper and timely submissions, graduates will not be able to register when the NYSC portal opens. This could disrupt their plans to participate in the mandatory one-year service.

Important Reminders for Institutions

Avoid Common Errors

Institutions must prioritize:

• Meticulous Collation: Ensure graduate data is accurately entered.
• Timely Submission: Meet the specified deadlines for both uploads and hard copy submissions.

Work Collaboratively

Student Affairs Officers, Registrars, and administrative staff must work closely to ensure all guidelines are adhered to.

Conclusion: Deadlines Are Key

The NYSC mobilization process is critical for graduates, and compliance with these guidelines is non-negotiable. Institutions must act swiftly and responsibly to ensure their graduates are not disadvantaged.
