13Th Congregation Saturday, June 30, 2018 Kumasi Technical University VICE CHANCELLOR’S REPORT 13th Congregation Saturday, June 30, 2018 FOREWORD Kumasi Technical University, formerly Kumasi Polytechnic, has since its inception remained relentless in its quest to execute the mandate of churning out the needed manpower for industry. The current report details comprehensive activities that have taken place and the strides made since the last Congregation of the Institution. The University is consistently forging links with various institutions within and outside the shores of Ghana which support categories of staff, students as well as resource exchange programmes. Collaborations of this nature have not only tremendously improved the human resource base of the University but have also enhanced the international image of the University. Further rigorous engagements were also made with industry and commerce within the period to reposition the staff of the Institution so as to be abreast of the necessary industrial experiences required for the realization of the goals of the Technical University concept. Moreover, Kumasi Technical University is persistently exploring ways of going into training and partnership agreements with industry in order to properly carry out the industrial attachments programmes for students of the University in this era of Competency-Based Training programmes. The University’s quest for a spacious campus has been given a further boost with a decision to put up a building for offices and lecture halls at Adako Jachie which is about 70% complete. It is anticipated that the facility will be ready for use when school reopens. Everybody is enthused about the diligence with which Governing Council is going about its work to set the pace for greater progress regarding the academic landscape of the University. It is the hope that the Institution will in soon see the unveiling of a search team to look for substantive people at the top positions to continue the effective administrative work. The Institution has so far distinguished itself in all spheres of academic life. Therefore, the Council, the Administration, Staff and Students have every cause to be proud of its historical achievements and the goodwill as well as the successes that the new status seeks to chalk. I am convinced that with determination and tenacity of purpose coupled with spirit of teamwork, Kumasi Technical University will soar into the greatest of heights with pride and dignity.

  • The Competency Based Training (Cbt)
    THE COMPETENCY BASED TRAINING (CBT) CONCEPT OF TEACHING AND LEARNING IN THE TECHNICAL UNIVERSITIES IN GHANA: CHALLENGES AND THE WAY FORWARD Prince Charles Acquaha, Elijah Boadu Frimpongb, Julius Kwame Borkloec abc Kumasi Technical University, P. O. Box 854, Kumasi, Ghana Corresponding email: [email protected] Abstract Competency Based Training (CBT) concept of teaching and learning introduced in the technical universities in Ghana has proven to be a very important educational programme in the technical and vocational education in Ghana. It has greatly improved the employability skills of graduates from the technical universities who have gone through this training and it is also helping to address the shortage of skilled and competent workforce needed in the country. In spite of its importance and prospects, there are some challenges in the CBT implementation that require urgent attention. This paper therefore seeks to address these challenges in the CBT concept. Twenty-five (25) academic staff across eight (8) out of the ten (10) technical universities in Ghana were interviewed. The findings revealed that inadequate funding, lack of infrastructural support and lack of policy guidelines and institutional support are the major challenges in the implementation process. The paper discusses these challenges and concludes with some recommendations that would help to improve the CBT concept of teaching and learning in technical universities in particular and the technical and the vocational education in Ghana in general. Keywords: Competency Based Training, Technical University, Ghana Education, CBT Challenges. 1. Introduction The polytechnic education in Ghana has gone through many transformational changes since its establishment in the early sixties (1960s), all with the aim of addressing deficiencies identified in the system.

  • Ghana MINIMAL ADVANCEMENT in 2019, Ghana Made a Minimal Advancement in Efforts to Eliminate the Worst Forms of Child Labor
    Ghana MINIMAL ADVANCEMENT In 2019, Ghana made a minimal advancement in efforts to eliminate the worst forms of child labor. The government committed to use the Trafficking in Persons Information System developed by the International Organization for Migration to improve case tracking and inter-ministerial coordinated responses. However, children in Ghana continue to engage in the worst forms of child labor, including in fishing and cocoa harvesting, each sometimes as a result of human trafficking. Prohibitions related to the commercial sexual exploitation of children do not meet international standards as the use of children in pornographic performances is not criminally prohibited, and the law also does not prohibit the use of children for illicit activities, including for the production and trafficking of drugs. Additionally, the government has not acceded to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child Optional Protocol on the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography, and resource constraints severely limited the government’s abilities to adequately enforce labor laws and implement social programs during the reporting period. I. PREVALENCE AND SECTORAL DISTRIBUTION OF CHILD LABOR Children in Ghana engage in the worst forms of child labor, including in fishing and cocoa harvesting, each sometimes as a result of human trafficking.

  • Gender Center and Gender Mainstreaming
    Gender Center and Gender Mainstreaming Educational level: University | Beneficiaries: Students, faculty, and staff Background Assessments of universities such as Jimma University1 and the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM)2 that found sexual harassment and violence and high attrition of female students played a role in developing gender centers.1 At the University of Western Cape, campus activism on issues including gender imbalances in salary and career development, sexual harassment, and maternity leave and child care contributed to the creation of a gender center.3 In other institutions, national and institutional commitment was key. For example, one of the objectives of the Presidential Working Party to establish Moi University was to develop a gender center, and the university’s 2005-2014 strategic plan committed to incorporating gender issues in policy decision-making processes.4 Makerere University also enjoyed a supportive national legislative environment in Uganda.5 Description Many institutions, including Jimma University, Moi University, UDSM, and Makerere University, note the role of the gender centers in promoting gender mainstreaming. The gender centers, offices, and committees at the institutions included in this review shared some common functions, including gender equality-related policy development, provision of training, skills-building, mentoring, counseling services, networking, information sharing, and research. Some institutions also provide scholarships to female students (Jimma University,6 Makerere University,5 University of Toronto7); facilitate housing for female faculty (Jimma University,6 University of Western Cape3); develop curricula on gender-related issues (the University of Ghana8); and develop proposals for “gender sensitive infrastructure within the University”9 (Sokoine University of Agriculture). The University of Toronto has multiple offices that work on diversity and equity issues.

  • Relevance of Social Studies Education in the Technical School Programme: a Survey of Kumasi Technical Institute in Ghana
    Journal of Education & Social Policy Vol. 7, No. 1, March 2020 doi:10.30845/jesp.v7n1p9 Relevance of Social Studies Education in the Technical School Programme: A Survey of Kumasi Technical Institute in Ghana Christiana Kudawe Wesley College of Education Kumasi Samuel Nyamekye Otchere Methodist College of Education, Akim Asene Aboabo-Oda James Badu Afari Agogo Presbyterian Women‟s University College of Education Abstract Social Studies, as an academic subject, was introduced into the school curriculum at the Junior and Senior Secondary levels to prepare students for responsible citizenship. In spite of this ambition, it was not taught in technical schools because their programmes were trade-oriented and little attention was given to liberal education. It was however introduced after the Anamuah-Mensah review. With this background, this study sought to ascertain the relevance of Social Studies Education in the technical schools’ programme in the quest to train socially-aware and competent citizens. Specifically, the study explored the relevance of its content in preparing good and effective citizens in technical schools and ways for improving the relevance of Social Studies Education in the technical schools’ programme. The study found that Social Studies Education helps students learn about societal values, interact with people and makes them aware of what is going on in the society. As a way of improving the quality and effectiveness of Social Studies at the technical schools, the study suggested increase in the teaching periods for Social Studies, improvements in the methods used in teaching Social Studies and the institution of regular in-service training programmes for Social Studies teachers.

  • The Role of the Supreme Court in the Development of Constitutional Law in Ghana
    THE ROLE OF THE SUPREME COURT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONSTITUTIONAL LAW IN GHANA by SETH YEBOA BIMPONG-BUTA i THE ROLE OF THE SUPREME COURT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONSTITUTIONAL LAW IN GHANA by SETH YEBOA BIMPONG-BUTA Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF LAW – LLD at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA PROMOTER PROFESSOR B P WANDA 1 February 2005 ii ABSTRACT The Theme running through this Dissertation is intended to prove that the Supreme Court has a role to play in the promotion, enforcement and sustenance of a proper democratic system of government, good governance and fundamental human rights and freedoms in Ghana. The Study would therefore address the role of the Supreme Court in the development of Constitutional Law in Ghana, with particular emphasis on the court’s contribution to the underlying concepts of the Fourth Republican Constitution of 1992; the guiding principles of constitutional interpretation and the vexed issue of whether the court should adopt a mechanical and literal approach to the interpretation of the Constitution or adopt a liberal, beneficent and purposive approach. The Supreme Court has asserted in the locus classicus decision: Tuffuor v Attorney-General [1980] GLR 637 that the 1979 Constitution as the supreme law, must be construed as a living political document capable of growth. Is there any evidence now to support that claim? The study shall also investigate the question of the power of the Supreme Court to review legislative and executive action. We shall also examine the role of the Supreme Court in the interpretation and enforcement of the Constitution and Fundamental Human Rights and Freedoms in relation to the rights and obligations of the individual and the State with the view to achieving good governance.
