JAMB TO DIGITISE COMMUNICATIONS IN JANUARY

The Joint Admissions Matriculation Board has said it will digitise all its communications from January 1, 2023.

Speaking on Sunday to journalists in Lagos, JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, explained that this would ensure the full transition from a paper communication system to a paperless regime.

“This will reduce delays in the conduct of the Board’s critical operations, increase efficiency, track communication and archive records of communications.

“The Board’s Integrated Brochure and Syllabus System will be upgraded to also serve as a communication channel between the Board, Regulatory Agencies and Institutions.

Oloyede added that for the smooth operation of the paperless regime, the Board would meet with all tertiary institutions virtually on Monday, November 14, 2022.

“The meeting would be held in two batches on the same day for Northern and Southern tertiary institutions.

“Also in attendance would be the three regulatory bodies: the National Universities Commission; National Commission for Colleges of Education and the National Board for Technical Education,” he said.
