CBT: JAMB Moves To Set Up Self Service Centres In 2 States | READ DETAILS
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), says it aims to establish self-service registration centres in Abuja and Lagos states to capitalize on its applicants’ digital skills.
This was revealed in the Office of the Registrar’s Weekly Bulletin on Monday, in Abuja.
The approach is likely to alleviate crowding at the Board’s authorized Computer-Based Tests (CBT) Centres in both cities, according to the Board.
It added that the goal is to improve applicants’ digital skills so that they can register on their own, as well as to extend registration access points in accordance with the current federal government’s COVID-19 regulations.
The board expressed confidence in the service provider, Bankfort, who according to JAMB, had guaranteed a potentiality of the seamless registration mode, as it is expected to incur at least N50 million in additional commission to its financial vendors.
This came when it implemented a cashless system in its 2022 registration process.
Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, the board’s Registrar, was quoted in the bulletin as indicating that the added financial load is the price the board is willing to pay.
