Speaking to the media, Mr. John Akwasi Amponsah, the lead facilitator of the workshop stated, “it’s time we empower our teachers with 21st-century skills to prepare our learners for the digital future. We cannot afford to stick to chalk and talk,” he added.

Another participant, Mr. Francis Osei, a headteacher from the Kumasi Metro, said the initiative has equipped them with new ways to support both teaching and administrative duties. “Beyond the classroom, we can use digital tools to enhance school management and track learner performance effectively,” he added.
The workshop is part of a broader campaign to integrate AI and technology into Ghana’s education system.
According to organizers, plans are underway to roll out similar training in other districts and regions across the country.
They believe that by empowering educators to lead the charge, Ghana is taking decisive steps toward building an empowered generation equipped to thrive in a digital world.
