The Federal Civil Service Commission has released the time-table for the conduct of year 2022 directorate level promotion exercise.
A statement by the Deputy Director, Press and Public Relations, Alaba Balogun, says the notice of the written examinations is to sensitize and inform all eligible candidates on grade levels 14, 15 and 16 in the Federal Civil Service via its circular of October 26, 2022; addressed to Permanent Secretaries/Accounting Officers/Chief Executive Officers of Ministries, Extra Ministerial Departments and Agencies (MDAs) for the awareness and compliance of all accredited Officers.
The circular, signed by the Hon. Chairman, Federal Civil Service Commission, Dr. Tukur Bello Ingawa, says that, “Further to Circular Ref. No. FC/6243/GOV/2022/VOL.1 dated 28th September, 2022 on the above subject, the Federal Civil Service Commission would like to inform all accredited candidates of the dates of the written examination (local leg) as contained in the attached time-table”.
“Candidates are advised to take a very close note of the date scheduled for their Cadre and Salary Grade Level and report at the stated venue for the Exercise by 7.am prompt’’.
The statement notes that to this end, it is pertinent to state that the time-table for the written examination has been scheduled by the Commission to commence Monday, 7th to Friday 11th November, 2022.
“To achieve a seamless and conducive exercise, the Commission has deemed it fit to stagger and categorise the MDAs vis-Ã -vis professional cadres of Officers into different dates within the specified dateline; grouped according to the grade levels of eligible candidates.
According to the statement, the venue for the scheduled written examinations (local leg) is the Public Service Institute of Nigeria (PSIN) along Kubwa expressway.
The Commission, in its determined and diligent strides, is committed to smoothen and streamline the conduct of promotion exercise in the Federal Civil Service being one of its core constitutional mandates; in view of the attendant global disruptions caused by the Covid-19 outbreak two years ago, which affected the operations of the Commission.
