Dear Valued Student,
We are pleased to inform you that the school will be initiating Computer-Based Test (CBT) examinations for all levels of Community Health Extension Workers in the upcoming examination cycle. This transition aligns with the standards set by the Community Health Registration Board of Nigeria and embraces global best practices facilitated by technology.
The shift from a paper-based to a CBT system will streamline our examination processes, reducing subjectivity and enhancing efficiency and effectiveness. To adapt to this new examination model, it is imperative for all Community Health Extension Workers (CHEW) candidates at Pathfinder School to acquire computer literacy skills before the commencement of the examinations.
Kindly note that the examination will consist of Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQ) and Short Answer Questions (SAQ), and any additional information will be communicated to you as needed.
In preparation for the Computer-Based Tests (CBT) with Remote Online Proctoring, please adhere to the following guidelines:
The Do’s:
- It is advisable to conduct the test on a computer with a working webcam.
