As a requirement for printing registration slips, candidates must now use at least two fingers and any of the two fingers taken would be used for biometric verification before entering the examination hall on the day of the examination.
The two verifiable fingers of all candidates must be consecutively indicated on the candidates’ registration and examination slips.
Centre prohibition
Oloyede said that no CBT centre would be allowed to collaborate with cybercafes and tutorial centres that had been prohibited, adding that any violation of the directive, whether in part or whole, would lead to the revocation of the licence of the erring CBT centre.
CBT centre accreditation With JAMB the new requirement for CBT centre
No new Computer-Based Test centre would be accredited without meeting the new requirements. To this end, new CBT centres must use laptop computer systems as clients, zero thin-clients or Remote Desktop Protocol would no longer be accepted. No CBT centre must install any clients with less than 2 gigabyte RAM.
Biometrics accreditation
The registrar also said that biometrics of all accredited CBT centre registration officers would be captured ahead of the exercise.
Exemption Candidates
At the registration point, candidates with bad fingerprints would be scheduled for the examination as ‘Exemption Candidates’.
Their registration slips would be colour-coded and visually different from those for other candidates.
