The examination council also said shortlisted trainees will be directed on how to access the online training materials.
“The venue for the residential training will be communicated to the qualified trainees later where the exercise will be strictly residential. Qualified examiners will thereafter be engaged by KNEC to mark KJSEA assessments using the criteria for recruitment of examiners based on the personnel needs for each paper,” KNEC stated.
According to KNEC, to qualify to be a KJSEA examiner one must be a practicing teacher in the relevant subject areas at the level of examination.
Applicants must also be registered or employed by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) or Public Service Commission, have a Diploma in Education and above, have a minimum teaching experience of three years, must not be on interdiction or any other form of disciplinary action from the employer, be recommended by his/her head of Institution and be 50 years of age and below.
To apply for the KJSEA examiner jobs, interested candidates are required to access the KNEC examiners’ portal using the link https://examinersapp.knec.ac.ke.
Those with Cp2 accounts should log into the portal using their usernames and passwords while those who have forgotten their Cp2 passwords should click on the reset password button, enter their mobile number, and submit to get new passwords for logging into the system.
KNEC urged applicants without Cp2 accounts to click on ‘create account’ and follow the instructions to acquire login credentials to access the system.
“Upon successful login, the applicants will then complete their personal profile and save. On the dashboard, click on ‘apply for training’ and all the declared vacancies will be available for the applicants to choose and apply,” KNEC added.
Further the council said only qualified teachers who have presented all the required documents will be shortlisted for the exercise on a first come, first served basis.
