The National Board for Technology Incubation (NBTI) has commenced a three-day capacity building and pre-promotion examination training programme for its staff.
Statement, according to the Board’s PRO, Ibrahim Agboola, marks the beginning of a focused capacity-building initiative designed to adequately prepare officers for their forthcoming promotion examinations.
The session, which commenced on Wednesday, brought together staff across various cadres and Technology Incubation Centres for an engaging and intensive learning experience aimed at strengthening their knowledge, sharpening their professional competencies and equipping them with the confidence required to excel in the promotion process.
He noted that the initiative underscores the commitment of the management of NBTI, under the leadership of the DG/CEO, Dr. Kazeem Kolawole Raji, to the welfare, professional growth and career advancement of its workforce.
”For the DG, staff welfare is not merely an administrative responsibility but a fundamental component of effective institutional leadership. He has consistently emphasized the importance of creating a healthy and enabling work environment, often stating that he does not want to preside over a workforce of disgruntled staff.
”This philosophy is reflected in the management’s deliberate efforts to provide opportunities that empower staff to improve themselves, advance their careers and contribute more effectively to the mandate of the organisation.
”The Pre-Promotion Examination Training Programme is therefore more than preparation for an examination; it represents an investment in the people who drive the institution. By supporting staff development and creating an enabling environment for career progression, NBTI is strengthening its human capital and building a more competent, motivated, productive and future-ready workforce.
“As an institution committed to fostering innovation and technological development, NBTI recognises that sustainable institutional growth begins with the development and welfare of its people.
”At NBTI, staff development is institutional development, and staff welfare remains an essential pillar of building a stronger, more efficient and more effective organisation,” the statement reads.
