The Ministry of the Interior has announced new February dates for applicants who were unable to complete the Centralised E-Recruitment Portal Aptitude Test due to technical challenges.
In a public notice, the Ministry acknowledged that some Category C applicants holding WASSCE certificates experienced difficulties submitting their aptitude tests online. The technical bottleneck, officials said, affected a segment of candidates and required immediate intervention to ensure fairness in the ongoing 2025/26 security services recruitment exercise.
To address the issue, the Ministry has scheduled a staggered mop-up exercise beginning Saturday, February 21, 2026, and ending Friday, February 28, 2026. The revised timetable is structured around the various security agencies under the Ministry.
Applicants to the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) will retake their tests from Saturday, February 21 to Monday, February 23. Candidates seeking enlistment into the Ghana Police Service are scheduled for Tuesday, February 24 and Wednesday, February 25.
The exercise will conclude with applicants to the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) and the Ghana Prisons Service, who will access the portal from Thursday, February 26 to Friday, February 28.
In addition, a general mop-up session covering all categories (A to C) will take place from Sunday, March 1 to Monday, March 2, 2026. The Ministry indicated that successful results from the aptitude test will be published on March 4, 2026.
According to the notice, affected applicants will receive SMS notifications with instructions to log back into the portal and complete their assessments within the new window.
However, the Ministry clarified that approximately 82 per cent of applicants who have already successfully completed the test will not be permitted to access the portal during the extension period to prevent system congestion.
