The young have been encouraged to enroll in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programs since they can ensure employment after graduation.

 

During the graduation ceremony for the first batch of graduates of the International Needs Vocational Training Centre at Adidome in the Volta Region, Mawulorm Gbekor, the head of the Centre for Empowerment and Enterprise Development, offered the advise.

 

 

 

She emphasized the importance of young people, particularly women, taking advantage of the government's investment in TVET education to develop themselves into valuable assets for the country's growth.

 

 

 

Students are urged to prioritize vocational and technical education.

 

She stated that technical and vocational education is critical to the nation's future success.  and its products; as a result, there is a strong need to work hard in order to justify the expenditures made.

 

 

 

Mrs. Gbekor stated that the NGO educates female students in a variety of occupational sectors, ensuring that they become proficient and self-assured.

She went on to say that since its start in the area, the institution has taught hundreds of female students.

 

 

 

"We teach young women about fashion, hospitality, and cosmetology." We prepare them for work in industry, and then we prepare them to be talented and proficient in whatever field they end up in. We've cranked out a lot of these girls, over 1,000 in all, and the majority of them have businesses.

"Some have gone on to become successful businesses who are making a difference in people's lives." I want to urge our young women to pursue TVET education since that is the path to success. We see that you can achieve anything at any moment and that the sky is your limit," she explained.

International Needs Ghana's Business Development and Communication Officer, Joseph Gordon Mensah, gave a speech on behalf of the Executive Director, noting that the graduates' training had given them an edge.

 

 

 

 

 

He went on to say that the apprentices will profit immensely from the new abilities they will get in such a short amount of time.

 

Mr Mensah pointed out that simply being a master craftsperson in their particular fields isn't the objective, but rather the start of a journey that must be taken seriously.

 

 

 

Students are urged to prioritize vocational and technical education.

 

"This graduation should serve as a launching point," he remarked, "projecting you to wherever your destiny is supposed to take you and whatever you continue as master craft individuals working tirelessly in your many fields of study and influencing information and skills to the next generation."

 

 

 

Technical and vocational education, according to Thomas Moore Zonyrah, the District Chief Executive (DCE) for Central Tongu, will help harmonise the implementation and supervision of quality TVET delivery in Ghana, as well as provide a functional TVET skills development system to improve productivity.
