Teachers and qualified non-teaching Staff of the Ghana Education Service ( GES) who are yet to receive their Laptop Computers under the government’s One Teacher, One Laptop Initiative have been urged to activate the announced shortcode.
A statement by the manufacturing firm, in Accra on Wednesday urged all such beneficiaries to contact ICT Coordinators in their respective Regions or Districts for assistance to enable them to receive their laptops.
The statement said even though almost 96 per cent of all beneficiary teaching and non-teaching staff of GES have taken delivery of their laptops, the company is stepping up its efforts to ensure all outstanding beneficiaries in all parts of the country take advantage of the initiative as it brings the nationwide distribution to closure.
The company indicated that the creation of the collection shortcode is for audit purposes and to ensure that only eligible teaching and non-teaching staff are served.
Teachers in the Ashanti, Greater Accra, North East, Upper West, Upper East, Northern and Savannah Regions are to activate their ShortCode *790*555# and contact their ICT Coordinators from Thursday, July 25, to collect their laptops.
Teachers and Non-Teaching Staff in the remaining 10 Regions are to go through the same process from Wednesday, July 30.
