On 21 September 2026, the Ghana TVET Service paid a courtesy visit to the Bank of Ghana to discuss the country's skills development agenda and explore a strategic partnership. The visit aimed to emphasize the crucial role of technical and vocational education in shaping national productivity, enterprise development, and employment outcomes.
Both institutions recognized the importance of quality, relevance, and reach in skills training amidst a rapidly changing global labor market. The Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr. Johnson Pandit Asiama, highlighted the economic value of skills development, stating, "Every skilled Ghanaian is a business waiting to happen." He further emphasized the need to broaden access to certification, as many Ghanaians acquire skills through informal pathways but remain excluded from formal economic opportunities due to a lack of recognized certification.
The Ghana TVET Service's Director-General, Dr. Eric Kofi Adzroe, stressed the need to align training delivery with the evolving demands of industry, emphasizing that skilled individuals can create jobs for themselves and others, driving inclusive growth. The visit also formally invited the Governor to participate in the National TVET Week 2026 celebrations, which would convene stakeholders to discuss the future of skills development in Ghana and outline practical steps to build a workforce responsive to emerging economic demands.
