The National Examinations Council (NECO) has automated the recruitment process for examination
supervisors and assistant supervisors for the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) and the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).
According to a statement by the Council’s Acting Director of Information and Digital Communication, Azeez Sani, the Council claims that digitization will improve efficiency and effective service delivery while discouraging unethical hiring practices.
The digitalization process entails moving from the manual recruitment of supervisors and assistant supervisors to an online system. The nomination forms, appointment letters, and electronic photo albums for supervisors will all be generated online thanks to this system.
Additionally, during the test, supervisors and assistant supervisors would alternate on a regular basis via the internet.
Interested, qualified teachers with an NCE, a degree certificate, a master’s degree, or a PhD are able to apply as NECO, BECE or SSCE supervisors and Assistant Supervisors (internal or external).
Prior to the digitalization system, the Council recruited supervisors and assistant supervisors manually.
