NEMIS Portal: How to Register and Login in 2022
This article is about NEMIS Portal in Kenya, what it is all about, and how to register and log in to the platform. I will also share how to go about performing the different functions on the platform.
What is NEMIS?
When the government of Kenya changed the education system to 2-6-3-3-3, they also launched NEMIS Portal.
NEMIS, the National Education Management System, is a web-based data management tool that collects and reports educational institutions.
It also tracks learners’ performance, teaches staff to improve efficiency, and provides a ground for effective management.
All the stakeholders use NEMIS in the education sector:
The Ministry of Education
Kenya Primary School Head Teachers Association
The National Treasury
Kenya Secondary School Heads Association
Learners across Kenya
Kenya Private Schools Association
The Kenya National Examinations Council
Teachers, TSC
Parents or guardians
ICT professionals
And other development partners.
