This was contained in a statement signed by the Secretary to the Board, Maj. Gen. A. M. Jibril (Rtd), on Tuesday.
According to the statement, only candidates who have been officially scheduled for the examination will be granted access to the test portal. Participants are expected to strictly adhere to all examination guidelines to avoid disqualification.
The board explained that the CBT will be monitored using artificial intelligence to detect any form of malpractice, third-party interference, or device manipulation throughout the session.
Candidates were advised to ensure they have a stable internet connection, steady power supply, and an appropriate device preferably a laptop. It warned that using mobile phones or switching between applications during the test could trigger violation alerts, leading to automatic disqualification.
The examination portal will open 30 minutes before each scheduled session. Candidates are expected to log in through the official portal, recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng, complete the photo verification process, and remain in the virtual waiting room until the exam begins automatically at the scheduled time.
The board added that candidates who are disconnected during the test can rejoin within the allotted time and continue from where they stopped.
