NPower is a scheme initiated by the Nigerian Government in 2016 with the aim of alleviating the drastic rate of unemployment in Nigeria. Basically, NPower aligns with the Nigerian Government’s vision that knowledge and skill constitute the drivers of social development and economic growth.

Therefore, NPower recruits a massive population of Nigerian youths (inclusive of graduates and non-graduates) in order to equip them with marketable work skills or encourage them to harness their academic knowledge in public departments or services where it is urgently needed.

Unarguably, NPower has a broad number of training programmes (for both graduates and non-graduates) and this substantiates the fact that the scheme is designed to accommodate numerous Nigerian youths with differing work-related preferences.

Basic Requirements for NPower Recruitment

While specific requirements are applicable for recruitment into some of NPower’s categories, there are also a number of requirements which all NPower applicants must meet. These requirements are alternatively described as the basic conditions that qualify people for NPower’s recruitment.

Admittedly, you’re mandated to know and meet the minimum requisites for your preferred NPower programme. However if your desired NPower programme doesn’t necessitate fulfilling special conditions, you can expect your selection (for the recruitment) to be based only on the following basic/general requirements:

• Readiness to get yourself beyond your comfort zone
• Being a Nigerian citizen in the age bracket of 18-35 years
• Showing the tendency to develop the required skills for bringing out the best in you
• The ability to excel at the relevant tests
• Display of sincere interest in your chosen area

What happens after you have submitted your application?

Notably, NPower will inform you about your registration through an email message you’ll get few days after the registration.

What about the aptitude test? When does it take place?

Your selected NPower category at the point of registration likely determines the date NPower will set for your aptitude test. Try to follow up your application and know the stipulated date for your aptitude test. Provided you’re able to take your aptitude test and excel in it, your chances of getting shortlisted (for NPower’s physical verification) will be boosted. Notably, there will be a scheduled date for the physical verification and it behoves you to appear at the physical verification centre on that date.

Note that NPower prohibits its applicants from submitting forged documents or presenting fake information during registration and/or application. This explains why NPower’s physical verification exercise is intended to filter out the applicants with falsified documents. Advisably, ensure you have genuine information in your various documents including your school leaving certificate, certificate of indigenous status, birth certificate, etc.
