Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu announced plans to boost funding for technical and vocational training programs across Ghana. The government wants to help young people develop skills that match what employers need today. Iddrisu believes proper training creates jobs and helps the economy grow stronger. He visited Koforidua on Monday to check how national TVET examinations were running. The minister told reporters that students with good technical skills can find work anywhere.

Dr. Eric Kofi Adzroe from TVET and Sulemana Zakaria from CTVET joined the minister during his trip. They wanted to make sure the tests went smoothly and students followed exam rules properly. Iddrisu warned about students using mobile phones to cheat during tests. Schools must watch more carefully to stop this problem from getting worse. Officials need to protect the quality of these important examinations.

About 55,000 students are taking TVET exams this year around the country. Female students make up 14,000 of all test takers participating. Iddrisu worries that not enough girls choose technical education paths. The minister thinks schools should encourage more young women to consider these programs. Ghana needs both boys and girls to learn practical skills for future success.
