Nigeria's Head of the Civil Service of the Federation (HoS), Winifred Oyo-Ita, has disclosed that the Federal Government(FG) would soon commence verification of workers' qualifications. She made the revelation on Monday, 29th, July 2019 at the formal launch of the 'Redesigned Training Modules on Structured Mandatory Assessment-Based Training Programme' (SMART-P) and the 'Leadership, Enhancement Advancement Development Programme' (LEAD-P).

 

Oyo-Ita lamented that over the years, there has been a lack of structured training programmes and has since increased the challenges Federal workers in Nigeria faces.

She stressed that all federal workers would now face a compulsory competency assessment test to authenticate their qualifications, effectiveness and suitability for their jobs.

The competency test, according to the HoS is designed by the Federal Government for that purpose.
