ABSTRACT: 

Education is the basis for development and empowerment for every nation. It plays an essential role in understanding and participating in day to day activities of modern world. It builds one’s character and is a significant role in transmitting one’s culture, belief and values to individuals in other societies or nations. Education helps in creating innovations and meeting the growing needs of every nation. Thus, the development of a nation can be ascribed to its educational system: not through the buildings it has put up, the roads and, bridges it has constructed, but by the human resources it has developed through a well-defined educational system. In the absence of well-defined educational system, the nation can hardly develop and maintain its infrastructure and resources. Thus, the growth of any society is not possible without education. In this paper, we elaborate on how Ghana can strengthen it educational system and promote accelerated development, by encouraging Institutions to run or deliver UK or US programs in some selected Institutions in the country.

Keywords: Education, Ghana, Development, UK/US programs.
