KNEC CP2 System: How to Access Link, Register, Capture and Submit Details
The Contracted Professionals System (CP2) is an integrated electronic system designed to facilitate the management of officers recruited to aid KNEC in the administration of examinations.
The primary objective of the system is to ensure that KNEC captures correct, accurate, and expeditious information about all personnel involved in the supervision, invigilation, and administration of examinations.
This will enable KNEC to efficiently process claims for payment, monitor attendance during the examination period, hold contracted professionals accountable, and expedite the resolution of inquiries.
All Contracted professionals are required to submit their information via the platform and apply for Jobs/Vacancies based on the roles they perform during the administration of various examinations in terms of the supervision, invigilation, and management of each examination.
