Hi guys. I was enlisted as an NSE member since July this year and I was told I will get a message from my branch chapter for my certificate but till this moment I haven't received any message. Please any idea on how I can get my certificate?

Congratulations. if you mean this past month July. You have to relax a little. NSE branch you applied through will notify you for an induction where you will receive the certificate. But if you need more information you can visit your NSE branch office. l believe the messge for your induction will come before December.

My application has also been stuck here for months now. It's been showing under review for ages now.

I wonder why we need to pass through back doors before a professional body like COREN gets things done right.

I expect to get feedback from them regarding my application considering the fact that I have made financial commitments. I even sent them an email but I got no response.

This is so unprofessional of them.

Good evening.
if your COREN application portal is showing "UNDER REVIEW ". is not what you should panic about, it simply means your application is under going vetting process. And if no correction, you might join the next PI/ exam, if the next examination falls within your region. The rotation of the PI into region do delay the COREN Exam at times if not your region is writing next. But when you have finally passed the exam and selected the percentage will change to 100 percent. So keep calm and watch for any correction messge OR Exam notification between now and next examination date on your application portal (7th and 8th, Sept., 2026). All messeges will come through your application portal. Goodluck

Good morning fellow engineers, please I made payment for 2026 practicing license through remita but has not reflected on my coren dashboard on the portal for days now. Please how do I go about resolving it please

Take a step to verify the payment status using the payment RRR number at the COREN website outside your practioner portal till it shows VERIFY. After, proceed to your main practioner portal and download your annual practicing licience.

seawealth:
Thanks a lot for responding.

Please am I also to upload the soft copy of my technical report and send my transcript to coren?

Good day.
NO.
You don't need to upload your technical reports but print the hardcopy for presentation and defence on the exam day. Any result you are uploading on your application portal should be CERTIFICATE. if you upload the CERTIFICATE, no need for transcripts.

seawealth:
Dear Engineers,

Please what are the documents that I need to submit for the coren application (non NSE).

I have already uploaded the following

NYSC
Degree (Tertiary Education)
Waec (Secondary Education)
Passport Photo

My proposals and experience confirmer have also approved accordingly.

However, I just read somewhere online that I need to download proposal form and proof of experience form, fill them out and upload them also.

Please how true is that, kindly guide me accordingly.

Good day.
IT IS TRUE.
You have to download both the certificate of experience form and Proposal form from COREN website/any other place. Fill the forms and give the proposal form to the two guarantors to signs and stamps before you upload. Also, you give the experience certification form to any registered COREN engineer at your place of work to sign and stamp before you upload the two documents on your application portal. Ensure any person signing for you is up to date in payment and ready to confirm your request on HIS/HER portal before you engage such person. GOODLUCK..

Dear all,

What is the procedure for someone who wants to obtain COREN registration through NATE?

NATE (Nigerian Association of Technologists in Engineering) is recognized by the Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria (COREN) I would appreciate it if anyone could share application process, and necessary steps involved.

Thank you.

What did you have as your Tertiary education certificate?

Jonbecks:
I have gotten my COREN certificate but I have not being given the iron seal.how long will it take to receive the iron seal because I thought I was supposed to get it with the certificate

You suppose to ask at the point you got the certificate.

IamNat:
Please, I have applied through the NSE route, when am I likely to get certified?

am not sure of the time. but continue to check for any update on your application portal while you pray toward next council approval list.

ItsTime4me:
Do they write in PH?

Yes. @ Abuja, Port Harcourt, Lagos, Enugu and Kaduna. But never fix a place because COREN exam can take you anywhere within Nigeria.

ItsTime4me:
Is it only in Abuja they write the exam?

No. if you are fortunate, second quarter COREN Exam might rotate towards your region.

texas1:
I have not gotten and no word from COREN on this..
Anyone with useful update on this issue, kindly share

Those Engineers that got their council approval earlier or during January, 2025. The stamps and certificates are ready for collection while those approved April, July and October are still pending.

[quote author=Engrsaeed post=137933331][/quote]The first Quarter of COREN exam is scheduled for 2nd - 5th febuary, 2026 at Abuja. The registration runs round the year. You can start your own registration today to be part of the next Coren certified Engineers.

ItsTime4me:
When is the portal usually open for application? Do they have scheduled exam dates for 2026 already?

COREN application is round the year. You can start your registration process today for you to be scheduled for next COREN exam early next year. No precise date yet.

[quote author=dierich post=137767326]Thanks so much
So, there is no need for NSE?[/quote

No need to pass through NSE if you wish. but you will write COREN exam after two years on the B. Eng date.
OR if you wish. you write NSE exam after two years of B.Eng date and later proceed to register with COREN (absorption method) no COREN Exam with this method, but you present NSE Certificate to register for COREN.

dierich:
Please I need enquiries about been a COREN register.
I finished my HND 10years ago and acquire B.Eng this year.
I've never register under NSE or any body before. Though I'd construction experience over the years
What are the necessary things to do to get registered

To register for COREN (HND + B. ENG)
- You need two years work experience after the date on your B. ENG Certificate before you can combine the two certificates to register for COREN.

Stephen0025:
Oh, okay, thank you.
Any idea pls if we can register for NSE with this licence??

Am not sure, but with the main certificate which contain the council seal and signatures, you are good to register.

Stephen0025:
After registration and licence downloaded. Are we to pay extra fee for stamp and seal?

NO. the money (#68000: Full Registration) has covered all. coren will notify you when they are ready for collection.

Stephen0025:
I actually received a confirmation mail but there wasn't any message like logging in with registration or old password. I guess the mail you are talking about hasn't arrived yet. It's 2 days now.

Did you verify your RRR number from payment status page as stated?
If NO, try and verify your payment RRR. Has you do so, the system will generate an email and send you mail containing your COREN reg. number. Even ppl that paid since Wednesday were resolved.

Stephen0025:
Is your registration number now displaying?
Have you got any mail about notification of result ?
Because I haven't received any mail or a display of my registration number

Good day.
Let m walk you through how l got my own sorted out. After l made payment through bank, l waited for more than 12hrs without any changes for payment confirmation (showing pending) on my application portal. l passed through the payment status at coren new portal, checked the RRR for two times till when the status change to successful. l went back to my email immediately observed that email was sent from coren as l checked the payment status. The email show my Reg. Number and aaked m to log-in with my R. number as user name and my old password used for application as password under practitioner page where l downloaded my practice license with my names and R. number boldly written on the letter.
Take care.

You need to wait for next council sitting before coren assembly.
