University Visit

Today. Alfred Kyaka, the Assistant Commissioner of Secondary Education of the Ministry of Education and Sports for the country visited the University to commend the work thus far and to convey the urgency for an increase of teacher preparation programs for Secondary Education in Uganda.

One Step Forward

One step forward! We were not listed on the NCHE website. I prepared an application for membership to the Inter University Council of East Africa, which requires a recommendation from the Executive Director of NCHE. It was perplexing to me that the university still was not listed on their website. I assume it was an oversight which has been corrected, accordingly on September 19th they finally added St. Ignatius University-Kabale to the list! 

The recommendation permits access to  Quality Assurance mechanisms from IUCEA as well as professional development on policy improvements, enforcement processes, data instrument tools, and many other mechanisms to monitor, evaluate and improve higher education access. 

Hopefully, Bachelors of Arts and Science for Primary Education will appear on the list in November.
