The National Conference of Principals of Colleges of Education-Ghana (PRINCOF) has stepped in to resolve the National Service registration challenges faced by College of Education graduates. According to PRINCOF, the issue stems from alleged accreditation problems, which have been deemed inaccurate.¹
Investigations by PRINCOF revealed that the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) has renewed the accreditation of all Colleges of Education up to August 2028. This means that all graduates from these colleges are eligible to register for their mandatory National Service without any hindrance.
PRINCOF, in collaboration with GTEC, is actively working with the National Service Authority (NSA) to resolve the issue promptly. The organization has assured affected students that they will be granted access to complete their registration and fulfill their National Service obligations as required.
