WAEC examiners are mostly graduate teachers in secondary schools, and some lecturers in colleges of education, universities and polytechnics. A prospective examiner must be a graduate in the subject he is appointed to mark. In addition, he must have a minimum of two years of classroom teaching experience and must be recommended by the principal of the school in which he teaches.

WAEC certificates have no expiry date.

WAEC discourages direct communication with school candidates. School candidates are expected to send their complaints to WAEC through their school principals, while private candidates contact WAEC directly.

To cater for the needs of candidates and propective candidates alike, WAEC has created the following channels for candidate interaction;

1. WAEC Konnect is a mini social media platform for recent WAEC candidates. Log on to https://waeckonnect.com
2. For up-to-date practise questions visit our elearning platform here; http://e-learning.waecnigeria.com

A comprehensive list of offences is provided in Council's Regulations & Syllabuses.

• The following, among others, constitute examination malpractice:
• Candidates bringing books or cribs into the examination hall;
• Insulting or assaulting any examination official;
• Swapping of scripts in an examination hall;
• Replacing their answer scripts with another one during or after the examination;
• Impersonation;
• Taking part in mass or organised cheating in the exam hall;
• All other acts that contravene the rules governing the conduct of the examination.

First, a committee of experts draws up a marking guide. All appointed examiners are then thoroughly drilled in all aspects of the marking scheme in a simulated marking exercise called co-ordination. Actual marking does not start until the coordinating officers are satisfied that all examiners know what is required of them. Even when actual marking begins, the examiners are not left entirely on their own.

They are organised into small groups, each being supervised by a highly experienced examiner called a Team Leader. The Team Leader checks and vets the group members' marking progressively to ensure that they are keeping to the guidelines.

The Team Leaders themselves are supervised by more experienced examiners called Chief Examiners. When marking is finally completed, WAEC still goes ahead to employ another group of people called Checkers. The main role of Checkers is to ensure that all marks awarded by examiners are correctly recorded and transferred to the appropriate score sheets.
