INTRODUCTION

1.1            BACKGOUND OF THE STUDY

The development of secretarial profession in Nigerian, started during the days of colonial administration in Nigeria.

          This however, does not mean that there was no form of secretarial service before the coming of the European people.

          The early man’s record of events was not written down rather it was through oral transmission because people could neither read nor write.

          The advent of colonial administration in Nigeria brought a bid change in the situation.

          They came with western education and established so many schools which still from the ground for many Nigerian to attend school. Typewriting was introduced together with Pitman’s shorthand.

          Following this rigorous innovation, a lot of improvements have been made in the training of secretaries and it is therefore necessary to distinguish between a typist, a shorthand typist and a secretary.

          A typist is a junior worker or staff member, whose main duty is to type manuscript or handwritten drafts, while shorthand typist is a skilled worker who combines the skills of shorthand writing with that of typewriting.

          A competent secretary combines shorthand and typewriting skills with ample knowledge of secretarial duties. He deals with correspondence, keep records, make arrangement and appointment for a particular member of the staff he is an indispensable, an alter ago, the company cannot do without, since secretarial profession carries a lot of responsibilities especially, now that more sophisticated equipment are introduced to facilitate the work of the secretary. It is the duty of a secretary to attend the company’s meetings, secretaries, from another perspective are those that are attached to the executives, to help the executives carry out certain responsibilities. The secretary efficiently and effectively render proper returns and gives notification to the commission required under the company’s act.

          Existence of electric electronic typewriter and computer has been designed to increase the work processing, spread sheet application.

          The programme are in corporate in the performance of secretarial task, their roles have been defined critically to accomplish the objective of the organization. The realization of the goal of the organization is determined by the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization manpower resource.

          Human efforts, therefore, is central to the attainment of any organizational goal.

          We all know that the purpose of any organization is to provide communication service and records, for this reason no big organizing or establishment such as West African Examination council (WAEC) and national examination council (NECO) will be able to exist and function well without a goal secretary.
