The first four week program, which emphasized learning using cases of Ghanaian agribusinesses developed specifically for the program with assistance from the Indian Institutes of Management, came to a close on May 10, 2013. The participants came from Ghanaian businesses, non-governmental organizations and the business support unit of the Ghana ministry of agriculture. Based on the demand from the participants an online forum will be developed to enable them to communicate among themselves and also assist them in accessing relevant knowledge systems. GIMPA has plans to expand this to a three month certificate program to offer participants from the countries in the region. See what Dr Joe Taabazuing, Senior Lecturer at GIMPA had to say. Stay tuned!
