Jasikan College of Education, School of Pedagogy in Jasikan, Ghana
Jasikan College of Education is a teacher training institution located in the Jasikan-Buem area of Jasikan District in the Oti Region, spread across multiple campus buildings. It offers specialized education programs including a Diploma in Basic Education and additional courses for untrained teaching staff.
The institution was founded in 1952 and initially operated in Peki Blengo with thirty male students before relocating to Jasikan later that same year under Reverend Eugene Grau's leadership. This early relocation proved crucial to establishing the facility and developing it into a major training center.
The college carries the Latin motto 'Sapere Aude,' emphasizing the value of intellectual pursuit in teacher training. English serves as the main language of instruction and shapes academic life throughout the campus.
The campus is accessible to visitors interested in exploring the facility and its educational offerings, though access policies and opening hours should be confirmed beforehand. The best time to visit is during regular school terms when campus life is active and guided tours may be arranged.
The facility has evolved from an initial two-year certificate program into a broader training center that has since prepared educators across Ghana. This transformation shows how the institution expanded its mission to meet the growing demand for qualified teaching staff nationwide.
