Within the period, more than seventy (70) students have graduated under the program and already in employment. The selection process is highly structured to ensure that the program yields objectivity. Currently,the students are recommended from local churches and secondary schools.

Student Council
Student leadership development is the process of involving students in meaningful ways both in and beyond classroom. It is providing opportunities for students to demonstrate their talents, skills and interest while continuing to develop new skills. It is also about giv­ing students more ownership of the programmes they attend. NIBS student council gives students an avenue to improve and strengthen college programmes and activities in ways that the management cannot do alone. Students bring new energy and ideas on how college activities can be improved.
The council provides opportunities for students to get involved and learn skills that can be transferable to the work place or community empowerment.

Our Mission
To provide quality and relevant education, training, research and community service for sustainable and economic development.

Our Vision
To be dynamic and innovative centre of excellence in teaching, learning, research and community service through provision of high quality and affordable training.
