Implications for Universities
GTEC has directed these universities to cease enrolling new students** at these unaccredited center’s. The Director-General of GTEC, Professor Abdulai Jinapor, emphasized that any institution continuing to operate programs at these unaccredited centres risks having its accreditation for those programs revoked.
This move highlights the importance of maintaining educational standards and protecting students from enrolling in programs that may not meet the necessary quality criteria.
