UCC inducts Prof. Aheto as Vice-Chancellor   

The University of Cape Coast (UCC) has formally inducted Professor Denis Worlanyo Aheto as its 12th Vice-Chancellor, with a charge to reposition the institution as a hub for practical and skills-based learning to produce competent graduates to solve real problems.“I am proposing today that the University of Cape Coast become the first in Africa to build a full faculty of degree-awarding vocational education, Bachelor and Master degrees in Applied Skills, with the rigour of the academy and soul of the workshop.

Sir Sam Eson Jonah, the Chancellor of the University, noted that the disruptive impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI), had made it untenable for universities to continue awarding degrees based solely on theoretical knowledge, without proven competence.
