Challenge

Palm Institute's initial facility was rented on an annual basis totaling $24,000 per year which impacted Palm Institute's limited financial resources. Our new campus allows us to provide the students with the learning environment they need to succeed. Members of the Palm community are encouraged to stand for what is honest, truthful and moral. We strongly believe integrity is the foundation that educates and prepares ethical and excellent future leaders for Ghana and Africa.

Solution

Palm Institute meets the National Accreditation Board (NAB) standards in Ghana. Palm Institute will commence the BSc. in Business Information Technology four-year degree program in January 2021. Our class sizes are intentionally small to ensure every student is given the attention they deserve. At Palm, no student is left behind.

Long-Term Impact

Providing higher education with an emphasis on critical thinking and leadership skills will enable the next generation of African leaders to provide ethical and morally sound leadership to their communities. The improvement that has occurred after the academic year for the total number of 40 students has been tremendous, with additional time and investment, the personal and academic growth for our students can be exponential.
