The members of the ICT have deployed a task force to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the registration portal and identify the root causes of the technical disruptions. Technical experts are working around the clock to diagnose and troubleshoot the system errors that have been impeding the registration process for students.
In addition, the ICT has established a dedicated support channel to assist students who are encountering registration difficulties.
A helpdesk has been set up to field inquiries and provide step-by-step guidance to students who require assistance with navigating the registration portal and resolving any issues they may encounter.
“According to Mr Daniel, the ICT has established a support team that is available to assist students with any registration-related issues. It is our priority to ensure that every student can successfully complete the registration process without unnecessary obstacles.”
