A Look Into Nigerian Defence Academy NDA Ranks,Courses & Salary Structures

Courses / Departments in NDA

The Nigerian Defense Academy (NDA)Kaduna, is the first of two Nigerian military universities. The Nigerian Army University, which was established in Biu in 2018, is the other military university, but it does not offer military training.

The NDA provides the necessary expertise, skills, and values for each official cadet to fulfill a military officer’s requirements through military, educational, and personal development. The NDA is currently known as one of West Africa’s best military academies and the African continent. This certainly explains why this college’s competition for a place is quite high because only the best ones are recruited.

The average length of the training at the Nigerian Defense Academy is 5 years for military cadets for the army (4 years of academic + 1 year of military service) and 4 years for naval and air force cadets after which they continue with their respective services to the Nigerian Navy College, Onne, Port-Harcourt and 301 Flying Training School (301FTS), Kaduna, respectively.
