USTED Pro Vice-Chancellor praises government's sustained investment in TVET education
Professor Isaac Boateng, Pro Vice-Chancellor of the University of Skills Training and Entrepreneurial Development (USTED), commended successive governments for their sustained investment in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET). He made these remarks during a fashion and food production exhibition organized by the University's Faculty of Vocational Education to showcase the practical skills and innovations of final-year students. Professor Boateng stated, "At first, TVET institutions were considered as institutions reserved for students who couldn't score higher grades in high schools. However, because government is giving much attention to TVET, such institutions have become attractive to all students, including Grade A students."
He noted that TVET remains one of the most effective pathways for addressing youth unemployment, bridging critical industrial skills gaps, and promoting entrepreneurship among young people. Professor Isaac Abraham, Head of the Department of Fashion Design and Textiles Education at USTED, said the exhibition forms part of the university's commitment to equipping students with entrepreneurial skills needed to succeed after graduation. He added, "What we are offering them here is not just theory but practical skills training to be self-employed."
