TVET Service Warns Institutions Against Unauthorised Fee Collection

Story By : Zainab Ali

The Ghana TVET Service has warned technical and vocational education and training institutions against the unauthorised collection of fees from students.

The warning comes amid concerns over charges that may be imposed on students outside approved arrangements.

The TVET Service says institutions are expected to follow the appropriate rules governing fees and charges within the technical and vocational education sector.

The directive is aimed at protecting students and their families from unexpected financial demands while ensuring that institutions operate within the established framework.

Technical and vocational education continues to play an important role in equipping young people with practical skills for employment and entrepreneurship.

The Service’s warning therefore puts emphasis on transparency and compliance as institutions prepare to provide training to students.

Students and parents are expected to remain alert to unofficial charges and seek clarification where necessary.

The TVET Service’s position reinforces the need for institutions to communicate approved fees clearly and ensure that students are not subjected to unauthorised financial demands.
