IITA Nigeria Graduate Trainee Program

IITA is an international non-profit research-for-development (R4D) organization created in 1967, governed by a Board of Trustees, and supported primarily by the Consultative Group of International Agricultural Research (CGIAR). Our R4D is anchored on the development needs of sub-Saharan Africa.
We develop agricultural solutions with our partners to tackle hunger and poverty by reducing producer and consumer risks, enhancing crop quality and productivity, and generating wealth from agriculture. We have more than 100 internationally recruited scientists from about 35 countries and 900 nationally recruited staff based in various stations across Africa.
The Institute seeks to employ and train young Nigerian Graduates in our diverse Research Support Operational lines at the Institute’s Headquarters, Ibadan. Applicants who are required to have obtained their first degree or Higher National Diploma (HND) within the last four years may not have any substantial work experience.
The Graduate Trainee  Program (GTP) which is designed to meet specific manpower needs of the Institute involves intensive one-year training in the Institute’s Operational Research Support Units.  Successful Trainees under the GTP will be offered appointment in the Senior Staff Cadre of the Institute and will be required to meet some conditions on assumption of duty as regular staff.  Only Trainees that meet set standards at the completion of the training will be offered regular appointment.
