The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) is set to conclude the online application window for the Sakshamta Pariksha (Competency Examination) Phase 5 today, January 9, 2026. This deadline marks the final opportunity for eligible teachers serving in government schools under local bodies across Bihar to register for this crucial assessment.

No offline applications or submissions through any other channel will be entertained under any circumstances.
This examination is specifically designed for educators currently employed in the state's government-run primary, middle, secondary, and higher secondary schools. The board has also provided a chance for those teachers who either could not clear or were unable to appear in the earlier phases of the Sakshamta test.
