The Federal Government has rescheduled the 2024 civil service accreditation and promotion process to take place from December 2-5, 2024, following initial logistical adjustments.
The promotion process, typically an annual event forcivil servants, was originally planned for earlier in the year.
A statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation (OHCSF), led by Mrs. Didi Esther Walson-Jack, explained that the new dates would allow for better coordination and smoother execution of the process.
The statement, while referencing Circular Ref. No HCSF/CMO/EM/AOD/073/1/16, emphasized that the rescheduling aims to enhance the efficiency and productivity of the civil service by ensuring a more organized promotion examination.

The examination itself is scheduled for Saturday, December 7, 2024, and will serve as an important milestone in the career advancement of civil servants.
Mrs. Walson-Jack also stressed the significance of the accreditation process, urging all eligible candidates to attend within the specified dates to ensure their participation in the promotion examination. (Vanguard)
