However Knec no longer issues duplicates certificates. What it issues is results confirmation which serves as a replacement for the lost certificates.

Previously Knec allowed a manual process of replacing certificates. The examiner has however now moved all the certificate replacement process to an online platform.

You can now easily replace your lost KCPE or KCSE certificate by following a simple online procedure that Knec released a year ago.

Below are the step by step guide on how to replace your lost KCPE or KCSE certificate online.

Kindly note that these procedures are also applicable for lost college certificates including PTE (Primary Teacher Education ) certificate.

KCPE – Kenya Certificate of Primary Education

KCSE – Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education
