Chairman of the Federal Civil Service Commission (FCSC), Prof. Tunji Olaopa, has pledged to ease the inconveniences of civil servants writing the 2025 directorate-level promotion examination in Abuja.
 
In a statement yesterday, Olaopa urged candidates’ understanding of the 2025 Directorate CBT Promotion Examination, noting that the commission was aware of the inconveniences they might go through while preparing for the exercise.
 
He acknowledged a recent social media publication on the matter, highlighting inconveniences attending the exercise, but observed that, as with most innovations, there may be some gaps. 
 
The statement read: “Transition from manual examinations to CBT comes with its attendant hurdles both for the FCSC and the candidates.
 
“As the Commission leverages JAMB facilities for the conduct of the 2025 Directorate Levels CBT examination, we are not only concerned about the credibility and transparency of the process, but also the convenience of the candidates, hence, the commencement of the first run exercise at JAMB Centres in the FCT.”

“Following feedback from the public, the Commission wishes to assure all candidates that it will consider the possibility of decentralising the examination centres across the 36 states and the FCT, using other technology-enabled innovations to make the process seamless for future examinations.”
