1In Burkina Faso, ENAM is the acronym for which training school that forms élèves greffiers after the Justice concours?
A.École Nationale des Avocats et Mandataires
B.École Nationale des Greffes of Dijon (France)
C.École Nationale d'Administration et de Magistrature
D.École Normale d'Administration de Koudougou
Explanation: ENAM is the École Nationale d'Administration et de Magistrature in Ouagadougou. The 2026 concours direct recruits 30 élèves greffiers to train there. It is not France's ENG (École nationale des greffes) and not ENS Koudougou.
2How many élèves greffiers did the 2026 Burkina concours direct post for ENAM training?
A.40, matching the 2024 greffier sitting
B.60 secrétaires des greffes et parquets only
C.30, at the unique Ouagadougou centre
D.10, as in Cameroon ENAM greffes 2026/2027
Explanation: The 2026 notice opened a concours direct for 30 élèves greffiers at ENAM, unique centre Ouagadougou. Forty greffier posts belong to the prior 2024 sitting, not 2026. Cameroon ENAM greffe numbers are a different State.
3Where was the unique 2026 written-exam centre for Burkina élèves greffiers?
A.ENAM Ouagadougou only
B.Yaoundé ENAM (Cameroon greffes centre)
C.ENS Koudougou
D.Every regional TGI as an exam centre
Explanation: The 2026 notice named ENAM Ouagadougou as the unique centre for the 30 élèves greffiers. Do not import Cameroon's Yaoundé centre or Burkina teacher-training sites.
4Constitution Article 126 lists which high courts among the jurisdictions of the judicial and administrative orders?
A.Only the Conseil constitutionnel
B.Only tribunaux de grande instance
C.The Cour de cassation, Conseil d'État, Cour des comptes and Tribunal des conflits, plus courts and tribunals instituted by law
D.The French Cour de cassation and Conseil d'État sitting in Paris
Explanation: Article 126 (as revised) names the Cour de cassation, Conseil d'État, Cour des comptes, Tribunal des conflits, and the courts and tribunals instituted by law. The Conseil constitutionnel is a separate Title XIV institution, not a bullet of Article 126.
5Under Constitution Article 127, the Cour de cassation is:
A.The superior jurisdiction of the judicial order
B.The superior jurisdiction of the administrative order
C.The superior jurisdiction of public-finance control
D.The court that retries every civil case on the facts
Explanation: Article 127 makes the Cour de cassation the superior court of the judicial order. The Conseil d'État is the administrative apex; the Cour des comptes controls public finances. Cassation reviews law, it does not generally retry facts.
6Under Constitution Article 127, the Conseil d'État is:
A.A chamber of the Cour de cassation
B.The body that proclaims presidential election results
C.The superior jurisdiction of the administrative order
D.The commercial first-instance court of Ouagadougou
Explanation: Article 127 names the Conseil d'État as the superior court of the administrative order. Electoral proclamation of presidential results belongs to the Conseil constitutionnel. It is not a cassation chamber and not a commercial TGI.
7The Cour des comptes, as described in Constitution Article 127, is:
A.The first-instance tax tribunal of each commune
B.A private audit firm contracted by the Treasury
C.The superior jurisdiction of control of public finances
D.The criminal chamber of the Cour de cassation
Explanation: Article 127 makes the Cour des comptes the superior court of public-finance control. It judges public accountants' accounts and related management; it is not a communal tax court or a cassation criminal chamber.
8What is the constitutional role of the Tribunal des conflits listed in Articles 126–127?
A.To try the President of Faso for high treason
B.To keep the casier judiciaire of foreigners
C.To hear all commercial OHADA appeals
D.To settle conflicts of competence between jurisdictions
Explanation: Article 127 states that the Tribunal des conflits regulates conflicts of competence between jurisdictions (typically judicial versus administrative). High treason of the President is a High Court of Justice matter, not this tribunal.
9Why is it incorrect to list the Conseil constitutionnel as one of the Article 126 high courts?
A.Because Burkina has no constitutional court at all
B.Because it was abolished by loi n°015-2019/AN
C.Because it sits in Title XIV as the constitutional and electoral institution, outside the Article 126 list
D.Because only the Cour de cassation may review statutes
Explanation: The Conseil constitutionnel exists (Title XIV, Article 152) as the constitutional and electoral organ. Article 126's list is Cour de cassation, Conseil d'État, Cour des comptes, Tribunal des conflits, and courts instituted by law — not the Constitutional Council.
10Which statute currently frames organisation of Burkina's judicial-order courts, including TGI and cours d'appel?
A.Loi n°008-2025/ALT of 9 June 2025 on judicial organisation
B.Loi n°015-2019/AN of 2 May 2019, which the 2025 act replaced
C.Cameroon's ENAM greffes arrêté only
D.Décret n°97-301 on diploma equivalences
Explanation: The Assemblée législative de transition adopted loi n°008-2025/ALT on 9 June 2025 as a relecture of the 2 May 2019 act; it is now the judicial-organisation statute for the judicial order (cassation, appeal courts, TGI, commercial, labour and related courts). Candidates must answer from the text in force, not from the repealed 2019 numbering.

About the Burkina Faso ENAM Greffier Exam

Burkina Faso's 2026 greffier pathway is a concours direct of 30 élèves greffiers trained at ENAM Ouagadougou (unique centre). The May 2026 notice, republished by justice-sector channels, required Burkinabè nationality, both sexes, ages 18–37 at 31 December 2026, a Baccalauréat or jointly recognised equivalent (décret n°97-301 of 16 July 1997), civic rights and fitness. The handwritten demand to the Minister of Justice carries a 200 FCFA fiscal stamp. Official assessment is in French. Do not confuse this sitting with the 2024 session, which posted 40 greffier places (not 30), or with France's ENG greffier concours or Cameroon's ENAM greffe papers. This free English MCQ bank trains shared Burkina judicial and greffe knowledge; it is not an official translation or a format simulation.

Burkina Faso ENAM Greffier Study Tips from Top Performers

1Learn Constitution Articles 124–127 (judicial and administrative high courts) separately from Title XIV on the Conseil constitutionnel — Article 126 does not list the Constitutional Council.
2Keep greffe (registry of the sitting court) distinct from the parquet (Procureur du Faso) and from huissiers, who generally serve process.
3Study loi n°008-2025/ALT of 9 June 2025 on judicial organisation (which replaced loi n°015-2019/AN) and loi n°054-2012/AN on the greffiers corps, not French ENG or Cameroon ENAM greffe syllabi.
4Practise French dissertations and culture-générale compositions; this English MCQ bank cannot replace the official written papers.
5Memorise only published 2026 rules (30 posts, 18–37 years, Bac, 200 F stamp, e-concours window) and treat 2024 candidate/post counts as a prior sitting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the official Burkina Faso ENAM greffier concours a multiple-choice exam in English?

No. Official papers are French written compositions. This bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation, not an official translation or a simulation of those papers, and it is not the French ENG greffier concours.

How many élèves greffiers were posted for 2026?

Thirty (30) training places at ENAM Ouagadougou, unique centre, under the 2026 concours-direct notice. Do not use the 2024 figure of 40 greffier posts.

Where and when did 2026 inscription take place?

Exclusively online on www.econcours.gov.bf or the eConcoursBF Android app from 22 May 2026 at 00:00 to 31 May 2026 at 23:59.

What diploma is required?

The Baccalauréat, or a jointly recognised equivalent with the joint arrêté of the Commission nationale des équivalences under décret n°97-301 of 16 July 1997. Equivalence is never presumed.

What fee is verified for 2026?

A 200 FCFA fiscal stamp on the handwritten demand to the Minister of Justice. Do not treat unofficial prep-site prices as an e-concours platform tariff; none was verified on official pages for this bank.

When does admission become effective?

Admissible candidates are ranked on merit; admission is effective only after physical-dossier validation at the Direction des ressources humaines of the Ministry of Justice, within the 30 posts.
