This year, CEE is transitioning from an offline mode to a Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode for the exam, marking a significant change. To ensure candidates are well-prepared for the CBT format, CEE has undertaken several initiatives. Trial exams were conducted on May 25, and practice tests are available for candidates through their KEAM 2024 candidate logins on cee.kerala.gov.in. Both government and private engineering colleges, along with private labs, have been designated as examination centres. Nodal officers have been appointed at the district level to oversee coordination within districts. The examination will be conducted with collaboration from various departments, including Police, Fire Force, Electricity, KSRTC, and Health. District Collectors have convened meetings with various departments to issue necessary instructions for the smooth execution of the examination.

Candidates have been notified of the exam day guidelines by CEE through the KEAM 2024 admit card. These guidelines are reiterated here for candidates' reference. It is imperative to adhere to these guidelines on the day of the exam.
