GTEC Halts Application Processing for Institutional Registration
The Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) says it has instituted a temporary suspension on the processing of applications for Institutional Registration.
According to the Commission, the measure forms part of ongoing quality assurance and regulatory enhancement efforts aimed at reviewing and refining existing standards to align with emerging trends and best practices within the tertiary education sector.
During the period of this suspension, institutions or applicants intending to establish tertiary institutions in Ghana through the Institutional Registration route are advised to pursue the Institutional Accreditation pathway as the appropriate route for establishment and operation.
“It is important to note that this directive does not apply to institutions that have already been duly accredited under the Institutional Registration framework,” it highlighted.
According to the Commission, such institutions shall continue to operate in accordance with the terms and conditions of their existing accreditation.
“The Commission appreciates the understanding and cooperation of all stakeholders as it undertakes these necessary reforms to strengthen the quality and integrity of tertiary education in Ghana.”
