When the appointment date arrives go there as early as possible. Forget your time slot.

You are to go there with the endorsed appointment letter and an id card. Note that when your printed appointment letter does not contain the barcode, it is not valid. The barcode would be scanned at the validation center to authenticate it.

After validation there comes biometric registration. You would have to go back to your regional office for this process. Your finger prints will be scanned and they will snap your face unto their system. Ideally this should have been combined with the validation process. But this is Ghana. This would lead to a lot of chaos and protocol registrations, you could be in a queue for over eight hours and still not be attended to. You would have to go home and come the next day. The purpose of the booking was to avoid this but it still happens. Best thing to do is go there before seven o’clock or forget it. People go there earlier than that. Another thing you can do is to relax, this process would go on for weeks. You can wait when the congestion comes down then you go.

After the biometric registration and days into your service you would be required to login to your dashboard. There would be an option to enter your ezwitch card details. When the time is due it would be communicated to you through their website or the appropriate platforms.

You would be required to print your evaluation form getting to the middle of every month and have it endorsed by your supervisor in your institution and submit it before 15th of every month before you are paid. Good Luck On Your Service To The Nation.
