The National Examinations Council (NECO) says it has digitalized the recruitment process for Examination Supervisors and Assistant Supervisors for the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) and the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE), both internal and external.
A statement signed by Acting Director, Information and Digital Communication of NECO, Azeez Sani, on Sunday, said the digitalization is to check sharp practices in the recruitment process and to enhance efficiency and effective service delivery.
“The digitalization process, which involves migration from the manual recruitment of supervisors and assistant supervisors to an online system, would ensure that supervisors nomination forms, appointment letters, and supervisors e-photo albums are generated online.
“Also, routine swapping of supervisors and assistant supervisors during the examination would be done online.
“Interested qualified teachers with NCE, degree certificates, master degrees, PhDs, and professors are eligible to apply as supervisors and assistant supervisors for BECE or SSCE, internal or external,” the statement said.
Recall that before the digitalization system, recruitment of supervisors and assistant supervisors was done manually by the council.
