The examination, which opened at the ICT Centre of Kaduna State University Main Campus, Kaduna, is being conducted by the Office of the Head of Service in collaboration with Kumesh Integrated Concept Ltd.
Speaking at the ICT Centre on Wednesday, the Head of Service, Mrs Jummai Bako, said the examination is critical for newly recruited civil servants seeking confirmation of their appointments into the state’s permanent service.
“Once a civil servant is confirmed, they become eligible to enjoy leave of absence, transfer of service and even in-service training.
“That is why it is very important for every civil servant recruited into the service of the Kaduna State Government to write the CAC examinations for confirmation of appointment,” Bako said.
She noted that the examination covers areas directly related to civil servants’ daily duties, including administrative, financial, legal and medical subjects, as well as general knowledge of issues affecting the state and the country.
The Head of Service added that the questions were categorised into about five sections to reflect different departments and cadres, including administrative, legal and medical personnel.
“The examination covers staff from ministries, departments and the 23 local government areas of the state, excluding tertiary institutions.
“For candidates who fail, they will get a second chance in 2027.”
She urged candidates to do their best because confirmation comes with several benefits.
Bako also appreciated Governor Uba Sani for releasing funds for the examination and for his commitment to workers’ welfare, including salary adjustments and prompt payment.
“His Excellency has done a lot for civil servants. On behalf of the civil servants, I promise that we will continue to do our best in implementing government policies because civil servants are the engine of every government,” she stated. (NAN)
