How To Activate TSC Email For E-Platform, Virtual Meetings, Remote Learning

Earlier last year, Teachers Service Commission,TSC, introduced an e-platform for official emails, virtual meetings and remote learning. The e-platform targets all teachers employed by the Commission and those undergoing internship programmes.
