In 2022, the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) commenced an exercise to assess the Fidelity of Implementation of the B.Ed programme. Using 24 indicators in the various components of the programme, the purpose of this exercise was to examine how best the Colleges were implementing the new teacher education programmes. Out of the 46 Colleges of Education across the country, Enchi College of Education emerged first.


At a ceremony organised by the College to celebrate the achievement, the Principal, Mr. Philip Ntaah,  highlighted that the College has always distinguished itself anytime a new revision in teacher education was made and as such, thanked the management, staff and students for their role in making this possible.
