Brighter Investment (BI) in partnership with the Ministry for Business Development and the Association of African Universities (AAU) will be conducting a nationwide career tracer study.
The social enterprise that provides full financial support to talented students in developing countries, will advise on the most viable career pathways among Ghanaian graduates in August.
The study broadly seeks to identify the most viable career paths and factors contributing to career development and success among graduates in Ghana.
Graduates from Ghanaian Universities, Polytechnics, and Colleges of Education between 2010 and 2019 are eligible to participate in this study.
Respondents will be required to fill a structured questionnaire which will take five minutes to complete.
The outcome of this study will provide policymakers with the needed data to make informed decisions regarding financing education, graduate employability, and business development in Ghana.
The nationwide tracer study is specifically to:
- Utilize the results to make informed decisions with regards to higher education in the country and in Africa as a whole. - Determine what education programs hold the highest career prospects for students.
- Expand supported programs and institutions and support more students.
- Inform decisions and create policies to increase employment and empower individuals to tow the path of entrepreneurship where and when necessary Brighter Investment (BI): Brighter Investment has tested an investment-led funding model for higher education financing over the last five years in Ghana.
Meanwhile, results to date show that BI students have outperformed their peers, increased their incomes, and are less likely to be unemployed with their degrees.
These positive first results suggest that BI’s investment model is a viable solution to improve access to higher education in Ghana.
By providing financial support with income-based repayment, more brilliant but needy students in some Ghanaian universities have been supported in their education.
