How to request 2025 BECE, WASSCE certificate online (attestation)
The management of the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) says it does not issue duplicate certificates for its examinations conducted for School and Private candidates, but this does not mean you can not request a BECE or WASSCE Certificate online. This post will guide you on how to do that.
In a blog post sighted by Pretertiary.com, WAEC said instead of issuing a new or original certificate to candidates who have damaged or misplaced theirs, it issues an Attestation of Results for certificates.
According to the West African Examinations Council, the attestation of the result is as valid as the certificate for candidates who wish could confirm the details on the document with the Council.
It explained that the Attestation of Results is issued to individual candidates or persons for their possession. The Attestation must be collected personally by applicants from the offices of the Council in Accra or the regions.
