JAMB To introduces self-service registration outlets in Abuja, Lagos, adds WhatsApp platform
Ahead of the 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME and the Direct Entry, DE registration billed to commence on February 12, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has hinted on its plan to establish a self-service registration platform.
JAMB pointed out that the conception of this noble idea is to, besides advancing the digital competence of candidates who feel they can do the registration on their own, expand the registration access points, in line with the extant federal government’s Covid-19 protocols.
Besides, JAMB said it was set to incur not less than N50 million as added commission to its financial vendors following the introduction of the cashless regime introduced in the 2022/23 UTME/DE Registration exercise.
Similarly, JAMB in its weekly bulletin said that it had also introduced the use of a WhatsApp platform, as an additional support and complaint platform for clients.
The board also said that the platform was also part of measures to effectively attend to diverse needs of candidates and its other clients alike.
JAMB said, “With this extra platform, candidates and other stakeholders would have the benefit of instant messaging and solutions to whatever query they might have regarding any of the operations of the board.
This is seen as part of the steps of an organization that tests the free UTME / DE 2022 exams and ensures there is no overcrowding during enrollment when most students will be submitting their 55019 applications for enrollment and testing. To stay updated on school news see Newsgregate
