The registration of candidates for the BECE for School Candidates, 2021 will commence from

Given the prevailing pandemic situation, the West African Examinations Council (WAEC)
could not organize its planned briefing of Metropolitan/Municipal/District Directors, Examination
Officers and IT Personnel.
To ensure that the officials are adequately equipped to handle the registration processes
effectively and efficiently, the WAEC has prepared the enclosed material (audiovisual notes on
BECE for School Candidates, 2021 registration) and the Timelines of Key Activities to
facilitate the registration processes.
By this letter, Regional Directors of Education are requested to disseminate the information to the
aforementioned Directors and Officers.
