....what IEPA is

Reflecting on some of the numerous benefits of the programme to my career as a lecturer at IEPA and an Educationist in general, I have been equipped with leadership skills, communication skills, team work and identification of individual differences. Generally, the IEPA programme served as a spring board for me to pursue a PhD in Educational leadership and management at the University of Leicester, in the United Kingdom.” MPhil - Administration in Higher Education (2010).
Dr. Mrs Gloria Nyame, IEPA-UCC Lecturer, Educational Leadership & Management
“My MPhil Programme at IEPA was a world of exploration and discovery. The programme equipped me with the skills essential for planning to become efficient at administration and operations. It was an essential ingredient towards my appointment as the Head of Ghana Cocoa Marketing Company CMC United Kingdom UK Ltd in July 2016 a position I served diligently until September 2021. A big thank you to all my lecturers and supervisors who ensured that I gave off my best. All your ‘grilling’ has contributed to make me who I am today, thank you.”  MPhil - Educational Planning (2006)
Dr. Barnett Quaicoo, Head, Special Services; Cocoa Marketing Company, Ghana
As a Masters degree student in Educational Administration at the IEPA at UCC on the Sandwich programme, the courses l undertook broadened my horizon as an Administrator and deepen my educational knowledge. It has also given me the opportunity to be invited as a resource person at various in-service trainings, where I share my practical knowledge underpinned by educational theories gained at IEPA. Additionally, because of the blended delivery mode of the sandwich programme, my knowledge in ICT with regards to the use of computers and techniques for research purposes have improved.
