How to Register and Apply for Jobs on KNEC’s CP2 Platform

The Contracted Professionals System (CP2) is an online platform developed by the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) to manage contracted professionals involved in the administration of national examinations.

This includes Examiners, Supervisors, and Invigilators’ jobs.

The CP2 platform is designed to improve efficiency, accountability, and accuracy by capturing information about personnel, monitoring attendance, streamlining payments, and maintaining a central database of all contracted professionals.

The system can be accessed at http://cp2.knec.ac.ke.

Purpose of the KNEC CP2 Platform

The system automates the management of officers assisting in examination administration.

 It captures accurate and timely details of personnel involved in supervision, invigilation, and management of exams.

CP2 facilitates claims processing, monitoring of attendance, and resolution of queries.

It complements the manual declaration forms previously signed by all personnel and stores all data in a central database for easier management.
