This was disclosed by Dr Margaret Ladipo, the Rector of Yaba College of Technology (YABATECH) during the pre-convocation briefing.
She stated that the frame work us currently being developed by the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) and once they are done with the paperwork, the frame work will immediately be adopted.
She further explained that once the frame work is adopted, polytechnic graduates will be required to wrote an examination any HND graduate that passes that examination will automatically be equally to graduates from universities.
