Recognition in Nigeria
Teaching in Nigeria is regulated by the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN), and registration rests on recognised teaching qualifications such as the NCE or a degree in education. An APTTI course is professional development for nursery practice; it is not a TRCN registration route on its own.
