Nigerian Scholars In Germany

Come on guys!!!!.... show then what you got 😉

Dear Scholars,

On behalf of the National Executives of this Association, I want to appreciate the positive feedbacks from our members in respect to the NiSIG Empowerment Programme (NEP).

Over the months, actions have been taken through series of meetings between BARMER and the Administrative heads of our prestigious association to ensure that the collaboration between these great organizations provide the best output for our beloved members.

BARMER health insurance made a good start on this collaboration journey by facilitating the COVID 19 webinar proposed by NiSIG on 8th April,2020 and employed the service of Dr Molitor in this regard.
The principal objective of this webinar was achieved and this brought about further deliberation on the collaboration’s possibility.

To allow for better understanding on the benefits NiSIG-BARMER collaboration can provide for our members, a webinar will be held on our official page on the 18th of July by 7pm. During this webinar, our scholars can ask questions from the speaker, Mr Alexander Geissbach(Key account Manager,BARMER).
Through this webinar, all questions relating to health insurance will be answered and the welfare packages for our members will be discussed.

We humbly request the presence of our members at the webinar on the scheduled date and time.
