The Registrar’s Department at Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo Polytechnic is the entry and exit point for all students of the institution. This is because it oversees the implementation of registration and examination processes in both divisions and monitors enrolment issues at all times.

Once students are offered a place, they are required to submit all pertinent documentation and also complete the requisite forms directed and monitored by this office as part of their registration with the institution.

Similarly, the office is also responsible for the registration of students with institutions with which it is affiliated such as the University of Zimbabwe which owns the Diploma in Education programmes that the polytechnic offers.

During the course of the year the Registrar’s office keeps track of developments in the enrolment situation of the institution, constantly checking on class sizes as they are affected by various forms of attrition. In this way the office keeps the administration aware of developments in this area.

The department is also responsible for assisting the Vice Principal in the preparation and organisation of examination processes that take place before, during and after the actual writing.

In view of the above, the Registrar’s office is thus an active department that is involved in a variety of essential vital and pervasive behind the scenes activities that facilitate the efficient day to day running of the institution.
