2. Request to register

Once you get to any of the TRCN offices, tell the officer that you want to register for TRCN Professional Qualifying Examination (PQE).

You will be given the remita payment details to pay the sum of ₦3,500 to a “Federal account via Remita”.

Do NOT pay to any personal, business, or company account number!

3. Make the payment

Go to any bank or cyber café and tell them that you want to pay via Remita for TRCN exam.

Banks will do it without much questions but cyber café operators may need further guidance.

If they do, tell them to:

• Visit the Remita Platform.
• Select “Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria”.
• Select “Professional Qualifying Examination Application Fee”.
• Enter the GIFMIS code (get it from the TRCN officer)
• Input the amount, your name, phone number and email.
• Click on SUBMIT.
• Input their ATM card details.
• Click on “Make Payment”.

Do NOT give the cyber café (or anyone) your ATM card details because your account may be used to make further online payments without your consent.

Let the operator input their own card details for the payment while you refund them the money either as cash or transfer.

In fact,

If you are tech-savvy, you can use your phone or PC to make the payment online following the same steps above.

4. Go back to the TRCN office

Return to any of the TRCN offices with your evidence of payment (teller, remita receipt) and all the required documents for registration.

5. Fill the registration form

After confirming your documents and evidence of payment, the officer will give you the exam registration form to fill appropriately.

In the form, there will be a section for you to select one category from A to D.

Here’s the interpretation, select:

• Category A – if you are a Doctorate degree holder.
• Category B – if you are a Master’s degree holder.
• Category C – if you are a Bachelor’s degree or HND holder.
• Category D – if you are an NCE holder.

Select ONLY the category of your highest certification.

For example.

Mrs Funmilayo has a Master’s degree, Bachelor’s degree, and an NCE. She can only select Category B which is her highest certification.

After completing the form and submitting your documents, you will receive your TRCN exam permit to be used to gain entrance in the exam centre on your exam day.
