The Directorate Headquarters of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has officially announced Thursday, October 29, 2026, as the passing-out date for all 2025 Batch ‘C’ corps members across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory.
In a formal statement released by the Director of Information and Public Relations, Caroline Embu, the scheme instructed corps members, employers, and local government officials to align their wind-down schedules with the established timeline. Discharge certificates (National Service Certificates) will be distributed at local government administrative levels nationwide on the passing-out day.
