NIGER
A
Higher
General
Administration
Section,
which
was
established
by
a
Decree
of
26
Feb-
ruary
1970,
started
work
in
the
National
School
of
Administration
on
30
October
1972.
It
has
two
purposes.
One
is
to
train
admin-
istrative
officers
at
home
rather
than
abroad
and
to
bring
them
into
direct
contact
with
problems
and
conditions
in
their
country.
The
other
is
to
provide
them
with
general
training
so
that
they
can
effectively
and
competently
perform
general
administration,
fiscal
administration,
or
development
admin-
istration
duties.
The
four-year
programme
comprising
30
weeks
per
annum
is
open
to
candidates
who
have been
successful
in
either
of
two
compe-
titive
examinations.
One
is
open
to
those
who
have
passed
a
university
entrance
examina-
tion,
and
the
other
to
civil
servants
with
four
years’
experience
in
the
higher
grades
of
Category
B.
The
age
limits
are
18
and
30
years
for
the
first
examination
and
40
for
the
second.
