Ghana Technology University College to host Ghana’s first virtual graduation

Ghana Technology University College (GTUC) has fully embraced this COVID challenge putting all social activities on hold. In accordance with the school’s core values, innovation, the University has endeavored to consistently stay ahead of the curve as we all navigate our way through these trying times.

In anticipation of its imminent conversion to full public status under the name Ghana Communication Technology University, the institution will be hosting its 25th Congregation on Saturday, 25th July, 2020.

This congregation, the first for GTUC this year, represents a landmark event in the University’s 14-year history, and is all the more significant and unique for the fact that it is being held primarily through virtual means.

Coming shortly after GTUC successfully completed both the remainder of the 2019/2020 academic year and the subsequent end-of-semester examinations exclusively online, this virtual graduation firmly perpetuates the University’s irrefutable status as a trailblazer in terms of technology and innovation-based education.
