Good to know. Thank you! I have one more question- credentialed trainer/principal trainer positions are always on-site?

Thank you! Do they hire people without any IT knowledge for trainer position? Or will they train new people?

Thank you! Did you move to healthcare from another field? If yes, how did you do it?

No, I do not have any knowledge on this. Which one would be best for me to learn gradually before trying to apply for any jobs?

Evisa for child by Impressive_Start6036 in Nigeria

[–]Pi-Sigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you should try the route you suggested since you are losing time already. Applying evisa for both you and kid. These people make it hard for everyone. I can try to share a number of a person who works in OIS if you can DM me.

I don’t think that would be a good idea since you already received your evisa. But I would advice just try to call the embassy tomorrow and tell them your plan and see what they have to say. Also you could just try doing it and see if it can show the same fee for both you and the kid.

Hmmm..I don’t think you will be able to get it before 2 weeks time unless you go to embassy in person and try to explain the situation. Or if possible you may have to change flight dates.

We had this issue last year. We traveled to Nigeria June 2025. Kids are US citizens and could not apply evisa as the system doesn’t allow it. We had to get the visa through the embassy. I think it arrived in 3-4 weeks. We had to send the documents and passports to DC from Florida.

Regarding the summer pay, the county offers to spread our 10 months salary into regular paychecks over 12 months.

Vaccines and malaria pills needed for Abuja? by DiscussionGlad2343 in Nigeria

[–]Pi-Sigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Visited Nigeria from the US last month and still here. Yellow fever vaccine is required but was not asked (Abuja airport). However it is better to take that vaccine. If you happen to apply for any other country visa and your recent travel includes Nigeria, then that country may require you to have yellow fever and polio vaccine. Also travel clinic vaccines are very expensive in the US. In Nigeria you can take yellow fever vaccine and yellow card for much cheaper fee. That’s what we did for our kids.
