The National Service Secretariat has released postings for the 2016\/ 2017 service year.<\/p>\n
Over\u00a0seventy thousand, four hundred and seven (70,407) national service personnel have so far been posted to various regions.<\/p>\n

The statement explained that the early release of the postings is to afford prospective service personnel sufficient time to prepare before they take up their postings in September, 2016.<\/p>\n
“It is also to offer user agencies sufficient time to organize in-service orientation and training programmes for service personnel posted to their outfits, to adequately prepare them both physically and psychologically to take up the challenges as they transit from school life into the world of work.”<\/p>\n
The NSS advised all prospective national service personnel to “visit the Scheme\u2019s website by logging onto www.nss.gov.gh to check their placements.”<\/p>\n
