HOW TO START NYSC CDS PROJECTS
To start NYSC CDS project in your state, you must
1. First observe a need in your host community, town or state.
Let’s say for example, you are in a community that do not have a refuse dump and you see that where they are dumping it may likely cause Epidemics such as cholera- this is a problem that needs urgent intervention. [a CDS idea already] so, to win award, there is a need for you to do more than one project and all of your project must be relevant.
2. Once you have identified a need, communicate your desire to the beneficiaries and let the head or the rep. give you a letter of approval to that they are interested in the project.
*this step is key as NYSC will not give you approval letter to start the project and without approval you will not be recognized.
3. Once you have your approval letter, you will now write a proposal to carry out CDS on the following format here
4. Once you are through with your proposal, take it to your LI [local govt inspector] who in turn will send it to the ZI[ Zonal inspector], who now forwards it to the CDS office.
5. Do not relax once your proposal is submitted and start executing projects
NB: You must officially commence your project after the approval letter is given.
Within two weeks you should have your approval, depending on your location and distance to the state secretariat.
If I were you, you will create time to follow up your proposal and the file to the CDS of at the secretarial and know what and what will be needed
6. Learn to be courteous to all the offices as it will go a long way.
So with these steps, I hope you can start your projects now and with the grace of God, if you start early , you finish early.
So don’t be lazy, go out to impact your generation.
I hope this post has been helpful, kindly share with your friends.

ReplyDeleteWhat happens if i get an approval for a project but couldnt execute it, will it be used against me by nysc? And if there are multiple projects in my area of assignment or community, do i get to write multiple proposals or one proposal to cover all?
