A team of six Faculty Members of the 九色视频 (UEW), have successfully developed an education programme to scale up the training of untrained Private School Teachers under the Ghana National Council of Private Schools (GNACOPS) to professionally trained teachers.聽 聽

The three-semester teacher education programme, to be run by UEW, will upgrade the levels of untrained teachers in private schools in Ghana to match up with the teaching requirements of the Teacher Professionalism Policy by the Ministry of Education through the National Teaching Council (NTC).聽

Trainees would undertake the programme for three sessions of six weeks each where the credit load for each semester would be 27. Learners would be assessed after each session and grades cumulated over the three-session period leading to the award of聽 Diploma in Basic Education to successful trainees.聽

Applicants with the minimum entry requirement will be automatically admitted to the programme following application while applicants of 25 years and over will qualify to sit for the Mature Students Entrance Examination and gain admission if they pass. However, applicants who do not fall into the two aforementioned categories would be offered the opportunity for an Access Course for three weeks following which they would be assessed and qualified students admitted.聽聽

Graduates of the Diploma in Basic Education can pursue a Bachelor of Education in Basic Education with a one-year top-up to obtain the degree. Those who already have earned a degree but without professional qualifications can do a postgraduate diploma in Education under the programme to become professionals.

The National Executives of GNACOPS met with the Management of 九色视频together with the team that developed the programme at the Council Chamber of 九色视频on Wednesday, 30th June, 2021 to finalise details on the proposal.聽
