About SP Membership

For education and research institutions to securely and reliably access and share resources over the NREN and data networks in Nigeria and globally, the Nigerian Identity Federation, eduID.ng has been established.

An institution can apply to join eduID.ng as a Service Provider (SP). The eduID.ng membership is open only to research and education institutions that are accredited or approved by the following:

  • National Universities Commission (NUC)
  • National Board for Technical Education (NBTE)
  • National Commission of Colleges of Education (NCCE)
  • Nigerian (Federal) Research Institutions

Organisations external to the Nigerian R&E community can apply to participate in the federation as an affiliate member or Service Provider. Contact the Eko-Konnect Secretariat for details.

Organisations that do not fall into the membership criteria described above but wish to join eduID.ng as a SP can join through a different application process under non-member terms.

How It Works

An education or research institution that is subscribed to eduID.ng and wishes to share resources as a Service Provider can apply for membership and must commit to being bound by Nigeria Federation Policy and the various addenda.
