WHY NSS PINCODES HAVE DELAYED

BACKGROUND

The National Service programme is a compulsory one-year service required of all citizens of Ghana who are 18 years and above, at the time of deployment. The Scheme which started in 1973 now operates under Act 426 (of 1980). The second batch of trainees of the maiden Bachelor's of Education Degree Program who just completed their academic discourse in their various institutions are next in line to embark on their mandatory service to their country.

While it is commonplace that National service for teacher trainees begins early every year, typically in the month of January, PINCODES which must be released by the National Service Secretariat to mark and streamline the registration process have not been released as at January 14, 2024. It is worth noting that the registration process can last a total of two weeks if PINCODES are released, while another waiting period for the main posting can as well last another two weeks, prolonging and extending the start of the National to somewhere early March.

WHY PINCODES HAVE DELAYED: WHAT WE KNOW

Unlike the first batch of the 4-year Bachelor of Education Degree students who were majorly affiliated to the UNIVERSITY OF CAPE COAST, trainees who are earmarked to embark on their national service this year belong to colleges which have diverse affiliations. Due to the disparities in educational policies and varying processes of these affiliates, students' academic data which is supposed to be sent to the National Service Secretariat to be processed for the PINCODES to be released,  has delayed. According to a prudent source, the PINCODES will be released once all eligible trainees have their data sent to the SCHEME for further processing. The dates for the release of the PINCODES therefore remains UNKNOWN.
