This recruitment drive is part of the Board’s efforts to strengthen its workforce to meet its mandate under the Nigerian Oil and Gas Industry Content Development (NOGICD) Act.

- Register on the portal with your details.
- Select the division and position of interest.

Applicants must ensure their information is accurate and updated to avoid disqualification.
The NCDMB uses the NOGICJQS portal to select participants for industry-related training. Registered users are advised to log in regularly to update their profiles and stay informed about training opportunities in the oil and gas sector.
Training selections are made based on pre-qualifications and the availability of programmes. For example, marine sector training is open only to those with relevant qualifications in marine-related courses.
Please take note that each applicant must submit only one application to avoid automatic disqualification. Some applicants, in a bid to make corrections, create new profiles. The Board is against this as it results in multiple applications that gives some applicants unfair advantage. The application process is FREE. Do not pay anyone for assistance, as this could lead to disqualification and prosecution.
This is an online-only application process. Paper applications will not be accepted.
