UTME 2025: JAMB Begins Accreditation of CBT Centres for 2025 UTME
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has commenced the accreditation of the Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres ahead of the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination exercise.
According to a statement published on Sunday by the JAMB Spokesperson, Dr Fabian Benjamin, said CBT centres that participated in the 2024 UTME without any issue should proceed to register their interest through the board’s centre management system (CMS) portal. He noted that the accreditation process is a crucial step in preparation for the annual examination.
According to the statement, new CBT centres interested in participating in the upcoming 2025 UTME are advised to review the requirements outlined on the JAMB website.
The statement read thus:-, “All new Computer-Based Test centres intending to participate in the 2025 UTME should visit https://www.jamb.gov.ng/Pdfs/CBT_centre_requirements.pdf to familiarize themselves with the requirements for establishing a JAMB-approved CBT centre.
“After reviewing the requirements, these centres should notify the Board in writing of their intention to participate in the accreditation exercise. This notification should be addressed to the Registrar of JAMB through the Zonal Director or State Coordinator in their respective states.”
“The zonal and state offices will create accounts for new centres on the CMS portal to facilitate their registration.
The statement added that – All centres must conduct an Autobot/Autotest on a date that will be communicated to them as part of their preparation for the physical accreditation visit by the Board’s team.
t is essential to note that the Autobot/autotest is mandatory; only centres that successfully complete this test and meet the necessary criteria will be eligible for a physical visit.”
Benjamin said only centres that qualify will receive information regarding the date for the physical accreditation exercise, scheduled for next month.
”Centres that do not achieve satisfactory results on the Autobot/autotest will not be revisited,” he said.
“Centres that meet all stipulated requirements will be approved and included by the board for the 2025 UTME registration and examination.”
Finally, the physical accreditation exercise is scheduled to begin in December 2024, and only qualifying centres will receive notifications regarding the dates.
