AIT sweeps three awards at 2020 UMB Ghana Tertiary Awards

Accra Institute of Technology (AIT), one of the top ranked private Universities in Ghana, has picked up three prestigious awards at the 2020 UMB Ghana Tertiary Awards in Accra.

The awards are ‘The Most Outstanding Institution in COVID-19 Times’, ‘The Best Technology University Award’, and ‘The Best Educator of the Year Award to the President of AIT’.

The awards scheme was organized by CrossMark Marketing with UMB as its headline sponsor.

The Accra Institute of Technology has won the Best Technology University for the fourth year running.

This feat was put to test when COVID19 set in with the university coming out with excellence in demonstrating how to deploy its technologies and systems to ensure uninterrupted academic activity in an educational institution even in the face of a global pandemic.

More About AIT

AIT since its inception in 2009, has extensively been deploying cutting-edge educational delivery technologies and systems to support teaching and learning in all its undergraduate and postgraduate programs.

As the only university in Ghana operating both campus-based and open university systems, AIT is one of the few Universities in the sub-region to easily and seamlessly roll-over all its academic program delivery and operations online during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Campus-based face-to-face teaching and learning had zero impact on the operations of the University.

This success among many others is what accounted for the award for the MOST OUTSTANDING INSTITUTION IN COVID-19 times to be bestowed on AIT.

The AIT success story cannot be told without mentioning the creativity, strong leadership, and direction from their able President, Prof. Clement Dzidonu.

The award-winning Professor has, through AIT transformed educational delivery in the country using Technology; thus his recognition, the BEST EDUCATOR OF THE YEAR AWARD did not come as a surprise.

Receiving the awards on behalf of the Unversity, Mr. Dominic Osei Boakye, the Chief of Administration of AIT, expressed appreciation to the organizers for recognizing AIT’s achievements as a leading technological university providing quality tertiary education in Ghana
