Since September 2014, The Palm Institute in collaboration with NAPE Foundation has conducted the first semester of classes. First semester exams will start on the 19th of January, 2015 after the exams questions have been moderated by professors in Ghana under the supervision of the National Board for Professional and Technical Examinations Unit (NABPTEX). This will help meet the highest academic standards while we train our students for the global stage. We currently have ten (10) students from Accra, as well as students from more rural areas in Ghana.
The new students have done exceptionally well, and we have begun the process of recruiting new students for the next academic year. We recently visited Nafana Senior High School, where many NAPE Foundation scholarship recipients have attended, to meet with students in the last year of Senior High School. We conducted interviews with many students who had qualifying grades to attend PISL during the next academic year, and we are currently in the process of reviewing new applications. Our aim is to provide as many students as possible with full or partial scholarships to ensure that as many young people are able to access higher educational opportunities and leadership training.
Once again, we would like to thank all of our donors who have been so generous and have continued to support us.
