Who can register
The licensure exam is for graduates. The portal checks that a qualification in My profile → Qualifications shows the year you finished. If not, the session says The licensure exam is for graduates. Add your completed qualification, with the year you finished, under My profile → Qualifications.
Trained outside Ghana? The exam opens only once the Interview Panel approves your foreign-trained application for the exam. Until then: The licensure exam opens for foreign-trained professionals once the Interview Panel approves them for it. If the Panel approved you for provisional or temporary registration, register first, then apply for the exam.
Your admission slip and check-in
The admission slip carries a QR code signed by the Council. At the venue, staff scan it to mark you present. A copied or edited slip doesn’t pass, and each slip can be checked in only once.
- Your seat and paper version are on the slip. Neighbours sit different versions of the paper.
- If your seat changes, download the slip again.
- If the slip won’t scan, staff can type your Exam no. and check your Ghana Card.
Online exams
Some sessions are taken on a computer. You find them under Registration → Online exams, where you can check your computer and try a practice exam. See the Online exams course for how to sit one.
What you will see
- Exam statuses: Awaiting payment, Admitted, Sat, Absent and Withdrawn. Your Exam no. shows once you are admitted.
