NIGERIA-DV 2006 Interview

[NameCheck!]

Is it true that the embassy denies you if you have a vocational qualification(Hand Work) and not educational qualification. I mean the 5 credits including english and math.

A friend won DV 2006, expects interview shortly but does have a vocational experience in construction. Please let me know what you think.

Time is not on my side.

Thanks!

Applicant must meet either the education or training requirement of the DV program.

Education or Training: An applicant must have EITHER a high school education or its equivalent, defined as successful completion of a 12-year course of elementary and secondary education; OR two years of work experience within the past five years in an occupation requiring at least two years of training or experience to perform. The U.S. Department of Labor's O*Net OnLine database will be used to determine qualifying work experience.
If the applicant cannot meet these requirements, he or she should NOT submit an entry to the DV program.

=============

If he meets this requirement there's no problem.
