By Oki O. Samson, Trek Africa Newspaper
The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has unveiled the much anticipated WAEC Digital Certificate Services System (WAEC DigiCert) across all its member countries: The Gambia, Ghana, Liberia, Nigeria, and Sierra Leone, Trek Africa Newspaper can report.
The Digital Certificate Services platform is a mobile and Web-based application
that provides enormous benefits to the various stakeholders. It is designed to offer simple features that enable users to access, request, confirm or share digital forms of the original certificates. Users can also recover lost WAEC examination numbers on the system, indicated the press statement e-signed and released to Trek Africa Newspaper by the Head of public affairs, WAEC Headquarters, Ghana, Demianus G. Ojijeogu.
The system is reliable, the authenticity of the certificates is guaranteed, and the cost
benefits to users cannot be overstated. Following its successful pilot in Nigeria,
WAEC DigiCert received positive feedback from candidates and educational institutions worldwide.
The general public and all stakeholders are advised to use WAEC DigiCert to avoid
administrative challenges and bottlenecks associated with manual certificate
issuance and collection.
The Council wishes to assure the general public that the usual printing and issuance
of certificates will not be affected by this innovation.
‘The Mobile App can be downloaded on the App Store or the Play Store for iOS and
Android devices, respectively. For more information, visit www.waec.org or our
official social media accounts @WAECDigicert’, Ojijeogu stated.
