an individual understanding of the issues in his surroundings.
Information service is generally the collection and dissemination of valid and usable information
relating to the educational. Vocational and Personal Social needs of the individual.

This implies that information service is designed to help each students adjust to his environment,
development, development his total educational and Vocational Programme (Olayinka, 1986)
Information services are needed to plan the future putting into consideration opportunities and
personal abilities or characteristics.
The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) was established by Decree or an a it No 2 of 1978, subsequently amended by Decree (AIT) No 33 of 1989 and 1993. By the virtue of the Act, the Board is empowered to be responsible for the - general control over the conduct of Matriculation Examinations into all degree awarding, Universities, Polytechnics, Innovative
Enterprises Institutes, Monotechnics and Colleges of Education in Nigeria. – appointment of

persons with respect to Matriculation examinations. - Placement of suitably qualified candidates in the tertiary Institutions in collaboration with those institutions.
The board conducted the first matriculation examination for entry into all Degree – awarding, other Degree – Awarding Institutions in 1979, Polytechnic and colleges of Education in 1991, Monotechnics in 1998 and in Innovation Enterprises Institutes in 2009 .

If individuals are informed, of all the available Job opportunities and the qualifications needed,
they can therefore plan more realistically their future careers.
Information on general guidance’s that will assist the individual to make correct and right decision on seeking admission into Nigerian Tertiary Institution. It is aim to serve as Educational Information which has been defined by Norris, Zeran and Hatch (1976) as: ……………. Valid and useable data about all types of Present and Probable future educational or training opportunities and requirement including Curricular and Co-Curricular offerings, requirement for entrance and conditions and problem of student life.
