The e-Brochure and e-Syllabus System (IBASS), which was recently introduced, is being taught to all administrative personnel at tertiary institutions by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
The majority of the vice chancellors, provosts, rectors, and other administrative personnel from tertiary institutions attended the program, which was held simultaneously in each of the six geopolitical zones of the nation.
To reduce bureaucracy, JAMB recently informed all of its stakeholders that all of its administration and other communication operations will be fully automated.
The board mulled the policy after reviewing bottlenecks associated with communicating or interfacing with various institutions regarding admission processes.
The new policy is expected to begin from January, 2023.
JAMB registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, who declared the North Central Zonal workshop opened through a virtual conference at the College of Education, Federal Capital Territory, Zuba, Abuja, assured that correspondence between JAMB and individual institutions would be individualised, which meant that such communication would not be open to third parties like in the case of WhatsApp.
Welcoming participants to the North Central workshop, Dr Sule Mundi, Provost, College of Education, Zuba, lauded JAMB for innovations in its test system.
He said the new initiative would go a long way in further strengthening education in the country.
