Kwara Polytechnic Demonstrates Digital Leadership with Flawless UITH Recruitment Test

Date: 2025-03-20

The Kwara State Polytechnic, Ilorin, has successfully hosted a computer-based test (CBT) recruitment exercise for the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH). This initiative exemplifies the institution's commitment to advancing digital transformation and integrating information and communication technology (ICT) into educational practices, positioning it as a pioneer among Nigerian polytechnics.

The polytechnic, renowned for its state-of-the-art CBT facilities, has established itself as a key venue for academic assessments, including Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) examinations and internal student enrolment evaluations. The recruitment exercise for UITH was executed seamlessly, with robust infrastructure and a dedicated team ensuring smooth operations.

Security personnel maintained order, while uninterrupted power supply allowed candidates to concentrate fully on their performance. The success of the exercise underscores the leadership of Rector Dr Abdul Jimoh Muhammed's administration in embracing modern technology and investing in the future of education in Nigeria.

The institution's seamless execution of the CBT recruitment has garnered attention, especially from stakeholders involved in digital and creative enterprise (iDICE) project—an initiative launched by the federal government, aimed at propelling the digital and creative industries to create lasting job opportunities for Nigerian youths.

The polytechnic's recent selection as one of the participating institutions in the iDICE project is a testament to its progressive approach towards education and employment.

By embracing digital solutions and creative enterprises, the polytechnic is shaping a future where students graduate not just with theoretical knowledge but with practical skills that meet the demands of a rapidly evolving job market.

This commitment has not gone unnoticed. During a recent visit by representatives from the Bank of Industry (BOI) and the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE), commendations were lavished on the polytechnic's management for their impressive facilities.

These stakeholders recognised the investments made in infrastructure and technology which they said is instrumental in fostering a new generation of entrepreneurs and skilled workers—paving the way for sustainable economic growth for kwarans and beyond.

The iDICE initiative aligns perfectly with the polytechnic's vision to integrate ICT into its educational framework, preparing students to thrive in an increasingly digital world.

With the added support from federal initiatives, there is boundless potential for innovation and creativity among students, ultimately contributing to a vibrant economy.

As Kwara State Polytechnic continues to champion the cause of digital education with the stern support of His Excellency, Kwara State governor and chairman of Nigeria Governors ' Forum(NGF), Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, other institutions can look at it as a beacon of hope and a model for modernisation.

The road ahead is promising, and with the continued dedication to ICT investment by the state, the polytechnic will undoubtedly lead the charge in transforming Nigeria's education landscape and enhancing job creation for the nation's youths.

In celebrating these milestones, the polytechnic leadership is here to prove that strategic investments in technology not only optimize educational delivery but also foster a brighter future for the country's economy.

While celebrating such initiatives as expressed above, it is pleasing to note that Kwara State Polytechnic is not merely an educational institution, but a cynosure and cornerstone for progress and innovation in Nigeria.
