The team from NAB held review meetings with all Faculties and Departments of the University from Monday, 2nd to Thursday, 5th September, 2019 at the Council Chamber, North Campus, UEW.

The review covered areas such as common deficiencies in accreditation over the period, innovation in terms of governance and administration, faculty strength and quality, staff student ratio, staff development, progress of research and development, funding, infrastructural development, creativity and innovation, mentorship and tracer studies.

In his address, the Chairman of NAB, Prof. Kofi Awusabo-Asare implored the ��ɫ��Ƶto stick to its institutional mandate of producing professional educators for the nation.

Prof. Awusabo-Asare made reference to some institutions which have now moved away from their original mandate and urged the ��ɫ��Ƶnot to emulate the steps taken by those institutions but rather remain focused on its institutional mandate.

“Creating a niche for oneself is very paramount; you become recognised for something. Therefore, I urge you not to move away from your mandate. Rather, make sure that you are on top of what you are doing so we can identify you with something unique and recommend you to other people or institutions seeking to collaborate with universities known for education,” he said.

The ��ɫ��Ƶis charged with the responsibility of producing professional educators to spearhead a new national vision of education aimed at redirecting Ghana’s efforts along the path of rapid economic and social development. The University also trains competent professional teachers for all levels of education as well as conducts research, disseminate knowledge and contribute to educational policy and development.
