Plateau State University Bokkos has reiterated its commitment to the training and retraining of its staff to ensure optimal performance.
Registrar of the institution, Yakubu Ayuba emphasized this commitment during a one-day training workshop for non-academic staff.
The initiative according to Yakubu Ayuba aims to enhance both academic and administrative growth within the university.
“The recent introduction of a series of training programs for staff members, both within and outside the university, underscores our dedication to staff development,” Mr. Ayuba stated.
He expressed gratitude to the Acting Vice Chancellor, Professor Shedrack Best, for supporting such initiatives.
The training, which targeted staff members in the Executive Cadre, marked the second session organized for the Registry Department this year. The first phase, held last summer, focused on Administrative Officers from levels 7 to 16. This latest phase included Executive Officers from levels 6 to 13, responsible for managing university records.
The Registrar acknowledged the crucial role of executive officers in university operations, highlighting their responsibilities in effective record management. As the lead paper presenter, he emphasized maintaining high work ethics and a dedicated approach to duty.
Other presenters included, Mathias Mwandat, Principal Executive Officer at the Records and Documentation Unit, who discussed record and information security concepts, processes, and significance and Dagau Nenrot Veronica, Administrative Officer at the same unit, who provided an overview of records management and its implications for institutional growth, advocating for digital literacy and a transition in record management practices.
The training featured an interactive question-and-answer session, during which participants expressed appreciation to the Registrar and the university management for this initiative.
Rhoda Falam, Deputy Registrar, emphasized the institution’s serious approach to record management and congratulated participants for the opportunity to share knowledge.
