Scholarship / Intended Plan of study and the kind of job you plan to seek after return [3]

Hello intellectuals. Greetings to the house.
Professor Holt, thank you so much for your contribution to my post. Please I need urgent help with this essay before the closing date.
Thank you in advance.

Here is the Title of Proposed Research:

Skill Acquisition Centers As A Tool for Poverty Reduction and Rural Development in xzy

The scholarship question:
Describe your intended plan of study and the kind of job you plan to seek on return to xyz country.

My answer

The harsh effect of poverty and unemployment heightened by the present economic recession has become alarming in xyz. The growing poverty among rural dwellers has caused increased rural-urban drift, which has compounded the present loss of jobs in the cities due to the recession.

The problem of youth's unemployment and rural poverty has indeed become a national crisis. The xyz government both at the Federal, State and Local level has redoubled efforts through the Ministry of Labour and its agencies especially the National Directorate of Employment (NDE) to combat the menace of unemployment and poverty within the society. One of such commendable policy is the creation of the Y-Power programmes targeted to train Youths who are graduates in skill acquisitions scheme; and also emphasis being placed on Skill Acquisitions in rural communities to stem rural-urban drift.

In the stride to save the economy from recession and avoid looming depression, job creation has become the most important policy of the present political administration. The government through the Minister of labour has outlined her plans to create over five hundred thousand (500,000) jobs in zzx through skill acquisition. However, the emphasis and targets of the programme are towards the Youths who are graduates from tertiary institutions and rural dwellers.

As a xyz, who has seen the negative effect of unemployment ravaging the country, it has become imperative for me to join the government in the fight against rural poverty and graduate unemployment. And I believe that I can effectively contribute in the aspect of policy making through a postgraduate knowledge and practical skill in zxy (course).

It is a fact that a government striving for development should place emphasis on comparative study of the economy of other nations. And I believe that if I am considered for the scholarship position, it will provide an avenue for me to develop and consolidate my comparative administrative knowledge in the field of xxz (course) which I have acquired in my first degree to contribute to national development.

My objective during the course of my study will be to focus on administrative policies that have created jobs in the country of my study. The policies adopted and implemented that have halve rural poverty and unemployment in such country will be the knowledge I will strive to acquire in the pursuit of my degree. I will also strive to develop knowledge on how to advance and modernise existing skill acquisition centers and programmes in rural communities in order to encourage participation.

Upon the conclusion of my study, I will return to zxy to seek employment with the Ministry of Labour and its agency of National Directorate of Employment (NDE) in order to help develop policies which will focus on job creation through skill acquisition with in the country.

Finally, I believe the knowledge I will acquire from the study will enable me to design and implement job creation programmes that will promote employment, poverty reduction and wealth creation in xyz both for graduates and rural dwellers.

Scholarship / Home Benefit of Commonwealth Scholarship - Nigeria [7]

Please I need help on this commonwealth scholarship essay. I need a critical review from anyone in the house. Thank you all.

Question

Benefit To Your Home Country

Commonwealth Scholarships in the United Kingdom receive funding from the UK Department for International Development. An important selection criterion is therefore the potential contribution that you will make to development if you receive a Commonwealth Shared Scholarship. You must provide a statement (limit of 500 words) explaining how your proposed study relates to a development need.

You are advised in your statement to describe how your plan of study relates to development in your sector and country. Please say how, on your return, you will apply your new skills and qualifications, and what outcomes you will hope to achieve. This could usefully be related to a national development priority or objective. Please also suggest how the impact of the potential benefits of your work might be measured.

My Answer

Since Nigeria's independence in October 1960, mass literacy had been on the front burner of the country's educational policy. Right from 1970's, there had been proliferation of policies to reposition educational system within the country. As a result of recognition of the importance of an educated nation, privatization and commercialization efforts had been a running war to reposition public education through various measures in order to provide qualitative education, accommodate increased interest; as well as compete with other nation's academic system.

In spite of undying zest for improvement of public educational system at all levels in the country, less had been achieved over the years. Service delivery just like most public sectors within the country had been very inadequate. Minimum results are being achieved compared to huge efforts. However this failure cannot be isolated from inadequate managerial and professional manpower in the sector. No doubt, for policy enacted to come to fruition, the administrative structures created for its implementation must be handled by adequate professionals. This connote that for Nigerian government to accomplish its goals aimed at national development through education, public administrative structures which focuses in the implementation of public sectors policies; must receive utmost attention.

My quest to engage in the race of moving Nigerian public sectors forward, especially the educational sector which determines the 'products' of the society led to my study of Public Administration at undergraduate level. The knowledge I had gained in comparative administration and my desire to advance my career in the field, is the reason for my decision to continue at a postgraduate level which will create an avenue for me to build upon my analytical and problem solving skills which the study offers.

Without doubt, I believe if I am considered for this scholarship, the skills to be taught in Queen Mary University of London and the postgraduate degree I will obtain, on my return after my studies I will join the Public institution as a university lecturer which will provide an avenue for me to participate in teaching, research and helping the government to develop and implement its policies geared towards citizens welfare.

The skills I will acquire through the scholarship will help me achieve my career and professional goals, towards repositioning Nigerian public education system for prompt and efficient service delivery that will enhance social economic development.

Finally, with the knowledge I will gather, I hope to contribute to national development by creating an awareness programme to enlighten and eradicate phobia held by most parents especially in the Northern part of Nigeria about Western education, and the need to avail their children opportunities provided by the government. This in effect will reduce the rate of illiteracy and encourage mass education including Girl Child education which the country aspires for.
