The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) on Monday, August 24, gave details of how candidates can upload their ordinary level results into its portal from the comfort of their homes.
The examination body disclosed in a statement that candidates can now upload their O’Level results from the comfort of their homes, while the board undertakes the verification of such results directly with the issuing examination bodies.
The O’Level result is a major prerequisite for any candidate who intends to write the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) for admission into institutions of higher learning across the country.
The statement reads: “As a responsive organisation committed to providing efficient and accessible services, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has facilitated the verification of candidates’ O’Level results directly from the various examination bodies responsible for conducting the Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (SSCE), beginning with the West African Examinations Council (WAEC).
“Consequently, candidates can now upload their O’Level results from the comfort of their homes, while the Board undertakes the verification of such results directly with the issuing examination bodies.
“The initiative is part of the board’s renewed commitment to making services easier, faster, safer and more convenient for candidates. By using technology to reduce unnecessary visits to CBT centres, queues and manual processes, JAMB is putting candidate ease of service delivery at the centre of its operations.
“The new arrangement also addresses challenges associated with manual O’Level result uploads, including misplaced or mixed-up paper results, presentation of unverified or fraudulent results, and errors in the manual entry of subjects and grades. Through the integration of JAMB’s eFacility platform with examination bodies, results can now be verified directly against the examination body’s records before being downloaded into the candidate’s profile.
