KTU Staff Participate in Mental Health Awareness Seminar

The seminar, held on Wednesday, 1st April 2026, at the Abba Bentil Andam Theatre, provided a valuable platform for staff to engage in discussions on building resilience and maintaining a healthy and productive work environment.

Key discussions during the session centred on stress management, burnout prevention, substance misuse, and the promotion of healthy lifestyles. Participants were also sensitised on the importance of fostering mutual respect in the workplace and preventing all forms of harassment, including sexual harassment, within the University community.

Facilitators emphasised the need for staff to prioritise their mental well-being and adopt practical strategies for managing work-related pressures. The seminar also highlighted the role of institutions in creating supportive environments that promote psychological safety, inclusivity, and overall staff welfare.

The initiative forms part of the University’s broader commitment to enhancing staff well-being and strengthening a positive institutional culture. By organising such programmes, KTU continues to demonstrate its dedication to creating a supportive and healthy work environment that enables staff to perform effectively and contribute meaningfully to the University’s mission.

The Students of the Departmenet of Management Studies Donate Projectors to KTU

Students of the Department of Management Studies, under the Faculty of Business and Management Studies (FBMS) at Koforidua Technical University (KTU), have donated six (6) projectors to support academic activities within the University.

The donation forms part of the students’ contribution toward enhancing the quality of teaching and learning, particularly in lecture delivery and classroom engagement. The projectors are expected to improve instructional methods by enabling lecturers to deliver more interactive and visually engaging lessons.

Receiving the items on behalf of the University, the Pro Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Richard Ohene Asiedu, expressed his sincere appreciation to the students for their thoughtful and generous gesture. He noted that the donation would go a long way in supporting academic work and improving the overall learning experience for both students and faculty members.

Prof. Asiedu further commended the students for demonstrating a strong sense of responsibility and commitment to the development of the University. He encouraged other student groups and stakeholders to emulate such initiatives that contribute meaningfully to institutional growth.

The gesture reflects the students’ dedication to academic excellence and their willingness to support the University community, reinforcing the collaborative spirit between students and management at Koforidua Technical University.
