The Nigerian Federal Government and the National Assembly have approved the commencement of the Computer-Based Test (CBT) by the West African Examinations Council (WAEC).
The move, which began with private candidates in 2024, aims to eradicate examination malpractices and protect the credibility of the examinations.
The Federal Government is backing the transition to computer-based technology, aiming to enhance the reputation and credibility of the examinations both locally and internationally.
The transition has recorded significant progress, with mock sessions and online practice platforms introduced to help candidates familiarize themselves with the system.
WAEC has successfully conducted exams in hard-to-reach areas without disruptions.
