PSPTB Releases December 2025 Exam Results, Issues Warning Against Cheating

DODOMA: A total of 595 candidates have passed the 32nd professional examinations administered by the Procurement and Supplies Professionals and Technical Board (PSPTB).

The successful candidates represent 48.7 percent of those who sat for the crucial exams held on December 1, 2025.

Announcing the long-awaited results over the weekend, PSPTB Executive Director Mr. Godfred Mbanyi revealed that out of 1,291 registered candidates, 1,223 took the exams, while 68 were absent for various reasons.

He reported that of those who sat for the tests, 595 candidates (48.7 percent) passed, while 589 (48.2 percent) will be required to take supplementary examinations.

"A total of 39 candidates, equivalent to 3.2 percent, failed all subjects at their respective levels and must restart their studies," he stated.

Mr. Mbanyi also disclosed that the Board nullified the results of two candidates at the CPSP level after they were found in possession of unauthorized materials suspected to be intended for cheating.

“These individuals entered the examination rooms with prohibited materials. The Board has directed the Registration and Disciplinary Committee to handle their cases in accordance with established regulations,” he said.

He confirmed that the candidates’ results have been withheld pending a hearing before the committee, in line with their right to be heard.

The Executive Director issued a strong warning to all candidates, urging strict adherence to examination rules and ethics.

“PSPTB will not hesitate to take stern measures to preserve the integrity of the procurement and supplies profession,” he emphasized.

He outlined penalties for malpractice, which may include cancellation of results, suspension for up to three examination sessions, fines, or even imprisonment, depending on the severity of the offence.

“This profession oversees procurement processes in both the public and private sectors. Dishonesty during examinations raises serious concerns about the quality of professionals we are training,” Mr. Mbanyi added.

He further encouraged graduates to register confidently for the Board’s professional examinations and called on parents, sponsors, and employers to support candidates by covering preparation and examination fees.

Such support, he noted, would help increase the number of qualified procurement and supplies professionals in the country.
