By Tribune Online<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being a Corp member comes with an amazing feeling as you\u2019re finally free from lectures, assignments and examinations but with all the excitement comes responsibility and the need for financial independence as you\u2019re officially welcomed to the real world of adulthood.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what productive things can you do during the service year? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Acquire digital skills<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The world we are in is one that is changing at a fast pace and is almost fully digitized. As a serving youth Corp member, acquiring some online skills will give you an edge over your contemporaries and make you relevant in today\u2019s world. You can walk in to any reputable IT training school to find out about the digital skill that will complement your course of study; you can also acquire these skills virtually via online training platforms. Some of these online training platforms train you for free while you may need to pay a token for others. All you need is good internet network and a device with which you can learn and practice. Now, the next question is \u201cHow do I know the digital skill to learn?\u201d Whatever you\u2019re going to learn should, ideally, complement your course of study (if you\u2019re passionate about what you went to school to study) and also be able to earn you good pay if that\u2019s the only thing you decide to do in the future. For you to make good money, it must be a skill that\u2019s in high demand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are some of the top digital skills tech companies are looking for today according to Digital Skills Global: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Programming, Web and App Development  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital Business Analysis <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital Design and Data Visualization <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital Project Management <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital Product Management <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital Marketing <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social Media <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data Science and Data Analytics <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Learn a handwork<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though the world has gone digital, it\u2019s important that each person learns a handwork whether you\u2019re learning it to apply to your personal life or for business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are quite a number of hand skills you can learn during your service. They include and are not limited to fashion designing,  barbing, Cake making, Catering and Decorating, bag making, shoe making, soap making, hairdressing, and tiling. After getting the letter to your Primary Place of Assignment(PPA), you can look around for a place within this vicinity to learn any of these skills. Some of the skills can be learnt within weeks and some within months depending on your agreed time schedule with the person you are learning from.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learning these skills helps you become financially independent in the long run and may serve as an avenue to provide employment opportunity for others should you decide to go into it full time after your service year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Take professional courses <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The importance of professional courses can never be overemphasized in today\u2019s world. Most disciplines have professional courses associated with them, e.g. ACCA and ICAN for accountants, CIPM for Personnel Managers, HSE, ISPON and OSHA for safety-related occupations etc. To become the best in your chosen profession, you need to find out the professional courses relevant to your field and use your youth service year to take those courses and get certified\/chartered. Asides from the fact that getting certified in a professional course is an added advantage to your CV and gives a higher chance of bagging a job, it also helps you improve your knowledge and skills in your area of expertise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Get part time or remote jobs <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a serving Corp member, you can always get a remote or part time job no matter where you find yourself \u2013 rural, urban or sub-urban. There are lots of different jobs you can take up if you take your time to look out for jobs in your community. There are also a lot of companies who are looking for fresh graduates or corp members to work with because they believe it is relatively cheaper to use them as work force as compared to the cost of using people who have already spent some time in the labour system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If there are no part time or remote jobs available where you are, you can create for yourself. For example, you could start private lessons for children, take up blogging, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Apply for internship opportunities <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Internship opportunities are always available especially for fresh graduates and Corp members. To get an internship offer from any organization, all you need do is to reach out to them by sending an application letter or putting a call through to know if internship opportunities are available in the firm. You can also research what you want or where you want to intern in on platforms such as LinkedIn in other to connect with staffs and executives of the firm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One\u2019s national youth service should not only be seen as a period of fun but also a period to be productive and gain financial independence. Endeavor to make the one year service worth while! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
