The British Council Ghana will be hosting over thirty institutions at one of the biggest most exciting educational events of the year, the “Education UK Ghana Exhibition 2014”. The venue for these events are the Golden Tulip Hotel in Kumasi on the 27th October 2014 and the La Palm Royal Beach Hotel, Accra on the 30th and 31st October 2014.
The theme for this year's exhibition is “Where Inspiration Begins”. The exhibition will provide a platform where UK universities and colleges can showcase the excellence of UK education and the range of study and training opportunities available for Ghanaian students, employers and employees.
The universities will interact with students, parents, training managers, employers, employees and the general public. Visitors to the exhibitions will receive information on how study and training in the UK can help them be the best they can be, by providing them with world-class qualifications for a competitive advantage in their career; with improved earnings.
According to the International Higher Education manager for British Council, Rhoda Enchil, “The British Council Ghana remains committed to promoting quality UK education and opportunities for studying in the UK. Over the last few years, our work has contributed to the growth of Ghanaian students in the UK and we will continue to work hard to secure long-term sustainability through management of Education UK and UK Alumni Programmes in Ghana”.
Education UK, Innovative, Individual, Inspirational!
