INTRODUCTION
The program has also helped in creating entry level jobs for a lot of Nigerian youth.
An NYSC forum dedicated to the NYSC members was recently built to bridge the
gap amongst members serving across Nigeria and also an avenue for corpers to
share job information and career resources as well as getting loans from the
National Directorate Of Employment.

Records to be kept in are often too large, diversified and complex to be
processed manually.
Most often some names are omitted as a result of manual processing
Statistics of yearly NYSC members are hardly correct as a result of manual
calculations
Students are made to contend with missing their service year as a result of
no call-up letter.
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
The objective of this project is to:
3
1. Have a database of all the NYSC coppers both present and the past
2. Issue call-up letters to students
Maintain a high level secured database

LITERATURE REVIEW

Passing out ceremony:
Passing out ceremony is the last stage of the NYSC scheme. This consists of one
or two weeks of events, which ends with a passing out parade. Events usually take
the format of lectures on some topics similar to the one at the NYSC orientation
camps but focus is on preparing NYSC corps members for the challenges they will
face in Nigeria.

METHOD OF DATA COLLECTION
There are two main sources of data collection in carrying out this study, information
was basically obtained from the two sources namely: -
Primary Source
Primary source refers to the sources of collecting original data in which the
researcher made use of empirical approach such as personal interview and
questionnaires.
Secondary Source
The need for the secondary sources of data for this kind of project cannot
be over emphasized. The secondary data were obtained by the researcher from
magazines, Journal, Internet and Library source.
All candidates due for NYSC programme can do their registration manually and
online This we believe will reduce the cumbersome nature of registrations at NYSC
orientation camps. However, note that some form of registration may be done in
camp so candidates go to the NYSC orientation camp with your full credentials.
Foreign based candidates must visit NYSC Headquarters at Abuja personally for
registration. With an eNYSC scratch card priced at N250 prospective NYSC corps
members can gain access to the authorized NYSC pre-registration websites. You
will need the callup number on the NYSC preliminary list for the online registration.
The Prelim List can be viewed online.

NYSC Batch C 2010, Batch A, 2011 and Batch B, 2010 are currently on primary
assignment. The next batch due for service is NYSC Batch B, 2011 and will be
going for camping from July 5, 2011.
Pre-registration for NYSC orientation can be done on the internet. You will need
your call up number from the NYSC preliminary list to do the online registration.
The new system is designed to solve problems affecting the manual system in
use. It is design to be computerized NYSC registration system thereby relieving
both the students and staff from much stress as experienced in the manual
system.
SUMMARY
This research work focuses on the use of computer based system with reference
to NYSC registration, deployment, and issuing of Certificate. The work covers the
manual system of opertions as regards the problems identified, stating the aims
of the new system, stating the various specifications and then implementing the
programs. The work was successufully developed using VB. 6.0, a user- friendly
8
programming language, and the package was tested and improved upon which
yields an automated NYSC deployment system.
The project work cannot be said to be perfect, but however, its benefits cannot be
overemphasized. It has led to the improvement in the speed of processing
operation, efficiency, accuracy and improved storage of data.
CONCLUSION
Realizing a project of this nature is very exciting. However, the students encounter
a lot a problem which I believe if looked into, will go a long way toward reducing
the tension associated with the design implementation and construction of the
project.
Moreover, an attempt to accomplish this project has taken care of the delay
between graduation and deployment of students for National Youth Service Corps.
This has also forced the researcher to learn, practically, what is involved in the
design and implementation or computerization of project (existing or non-existing).
Finally, I wish to commend the university system and indeed the department
of computer science for this project inclusion as a course that must be taken by
students. It is a step in the right direction to help students withstand the future
challenges in computing in companies, industries, institutions and the world at
large.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the achieved objective of this project and the experiences gained during
its designed and implementation, I wish to make the following recommendations
for future improvement.
Students should be exposed to serious practical exercise during the course of their
studies. In this regard, the students of computer science should be made to write
good working programs with veritable results before graduating. This could be
accomplished by providing more computers in the department.
Tertiary institutions should computerize their result processing system for greater
efficiency, neatness, and reliability. This will go a long way to save the student all
the trouble they go through trying to get their results in one form or the other and
facilitate early forwarding of names to NYSC for posting.
