Achinakrom (Ash), Dec. 14, GNA-Mr Simon Osei Mensah, Ashanti Regional Minister has urged the youth to embrace Technical, Vocational Education and Training (TVET) to acquire skills that will made them self-employable.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 He said TVET had the potential to resolve the country\u2019s unemployment challenges and that was why the government was providing the requisite infrastructure to make TVET education accessible to many young people in the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Mr Osei Mensah made the call, during an inauguration of a six-unit classroom block with offices for the headmaster, staff and computer laboratory, for the Achinakrom basic schools in the Ejisu Municipality.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It was constructed by the district assembly to replace an old block which had become a death trap for the pupils.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Regional Minister said TVET was now the best form of education all over the world, since it provided hands-on skills training required by not only industries but the individual to create his or her own business.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The younger generation therefore needed to embrace it to acquire the skills needed to create jobs for themselves and employ others.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Mr Osei Mensah said the government would continue to create opportunities in the TVET space to get more young people to acquire rightful skills and expertise for their future.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Mr Samuel Oduro Frimpong, Ejisu Municipal Chief Executive, said quality education delivery was one of the topmost priorities of the assembly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It would therefore work to provide the infrastructure and human resources to promote and enhance efficient classroom delivery to improve the performance of school children in the area.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ms. Lordina Amankwaa, assembly for Achinakrom electoral area called on the children to take advantage of the project to learn to climb higher on the education ladder.\u00a0<\/p>\n
