Dragnet Solutions Limited, Nigeria’s leading provider of talent assessment and recruitment technology, has announced a 10-year extension of its strategic partnership with HR Avatar, a US-based global leader in AI-powered pre-employment testing and simulation technology.
This long-term extension affirms Dragnet’s commitment to advancing its suite of world-class assessment solutions through strategic global collaborations, even as it continues to develop and maintain its own proprietary platforms currently used to tailor solutions for premium local clients.
Through HR Avatar’s cutting-edge technology, organizations gain access to AI-driven simulations, behavioral assessments, and soft-skill analytics that offer a holistic view of candidate potential. The platform’s immersive, job-specific testing approach supports Dragnet’s vision of ensuring fairness, precision, and data-driven decision-making in recruitment.
“This 10-year extension marks another major step in our journey to combine local insight with global innovation,” said Arek Bawa, Managing Director, Dragnet Solutions. “Our partnership with HR Avatar continues to strengthen how we deliver reliable, science-backed tools that help employers identify and nurture the right talent.”
This partnership builds on Dragnet’s broader strategy of aligning with global technology and assessment pioneers, including its collaboration with Prometric, a world leader in secure computer-based testing. Through Prometric, Dragnet administers high-stakes professional and academic examinations across multiple career paths.
Dragnet supports a wide range of professional career paths by delivering exams and certifications across diverse industries. For those pursuing careers in law, security, finance, or healthcare, Dragnet has facilitated assessments for global and regional bodies alike. These include professional certifications such as the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) for fraud investigation, the Law School Admission Council (LSAC) for aspiring lawyers, and the American Society for Industrial Security (ASIS) for security professionals. In finance, Dragnet handles examinations for the Chartered Institute for Securities and Investment (CISI), while in human resources, it supports the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM). The company also plays a key role in medical licensing and accreditation, managing exams for organizations like the Dubai Health Authority (DHA), the Ministry of Health Kuwait Medical Licensing Exam, and the Medical Council of Canada (MCC). Through these partnerships, Dragnet helps professionals across sectors validate their skills, advance their careers, and meet global certification standards.
Dragnet Prometric partnership and physical test centre in Lagos is used for hundreds of international professional certification exams and 1 or 2 immigration or language exams.

This collaboration reflects Dragnet’s growing ecosystem of professionals and partners across the US, India, and the UK; working together at the intersection of technology, psychometrics, and global testing standards.
These partnerships are further strengthened by Dragnet’s internationally recognized ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 27001 (Information Security Management) certifications, which ensure the company’s operations meet the highest global standards of quality, security, and integrity.
“We see this as teamwork across continents, uniting expertise in technology, psychology, and education to create lasting impact.” added Baba Ikazoboh, Co-Founder, Dragnet Solutions. “With HR Avatar, we’re positioned to redefine what modern, trustworthy assessment means for organizations in Africa and beyond.”
Dragnet’s partnership with HR Avatar has experienced a recent upgrade by the US firm; enhancing Avatar animations to now run off trained AI engines with world class psychometric exchanges in what presents as gamified assessments where candidates are actually immersed directly into real world work situations, complexities, and now with AI these worlds allow for better simulated comparisons with work culture, and much more.
The new 10-year continental partnership agreement comes at just the right time when this technology evolution has entered a new rate of acceleration, which Ikazoboh has described as exciting times for near limitless innovation, all for the benefit of our candidates and forward-thinking clients.
