Prestige Gateway Academy (PGA), a private tertiary institution, held its second graduation ceremony in Accra at the weekend. In all 48 students, made up of 30 females and 18 males graduated in accounting and finance, public relations, marketing and intensive English language among others.
The institution, which is made up of mostly Francophone students and some Ghanaians, is in the process of affiliating with some universities in order to attain higher standards.
The Director of PGA, Ms Herty Nancy Sackey, said the school, which started with three students, now has a population of 250 students from Cote d’Ivoire, Chad, Gabon, Guinea, Togo and Ghana among others.
She said the school would soon be expanded, adding that “We are also looking at the possibility of ordering our own textbooks from Britain, come next academic year.”
Ms Sackey said although the institution had chalked up a few successes, there were some challenges which hampered its smooth running.
She noted that because most of the students were from different backgrounds and cultures it was difficult for them to co-exist.
She said the students were not punctual and advised them to be regular in order to achieve their future goals.
The General Secretary of the Institute of Commercial Management (ICM) Mr Eric Agbenyo advised the graduates to take their studies seriously.
He also called on tutorial colleges to be serious with their infrastructure and employ qualified lecturers to teach, since the National Accreditation Board would close down colleges which did not meet its standard. Source: Daily Graphic - Daily Graphic
