The University of Abuja has actually inducted 258 Bachelor of Education finishes into the mentor occupation following their effective licensing by the Educators Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN).
The induction, which marked the 10th ceremony for the university’s Bachelor of Education program, formally confessed the graduates into Nigeria’s mentor workforce.
Speaking at the event, the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Abuja, Professor Hakeem Babatunde Fawehinmi, commended the TRCN for its commitment to reinforcing the mentor occupation through effective policy and quality assurance.
Resolving the newly inducted instructors, Fawehinmi urged them to release their duties with humility and devotion.
