The National Accreditation Board (NAB) has noticed with great concern the spate of conferment of honorary degrees and professorial titles on some personalities by some unaccredited institutions, accredited institutions unqualified to award degrees on their own or other institutions with doubtful credentials.<\/p>\n<p>The Board has been reliably informed that another of such unaccredited institution -RESCUE MISSION THEOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY has scheduled to confer such honorary degrees on some gullible and unsuspecting individuals. The Security Agencies have been alerted to arrest this worrying trend of institutions with doubtful and questionable existence coming into our Country to perform such ridiculous activities.<\/p>\n<p>For the avoidance of doubt, the following institutions have neither been accredited in Ghana nor in their home countries by the recognized accrediting bodies:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Day Spring Christian University of Mississippi<\/li>\n<li>Pan African Clergy Council and Bible College<\/li>\n<li>Global Centre for Transformational Leadership<\/li>\n<li>World Council for Evangelical Clergy<\/li>\n<li>Peristrofi Word Honorary International<\/li>\n<li>King of Kings World Foundation<\/li>\n<li>King of Kings Bible College<\/li>\n<li>Riches Theological College and Clergy council<\/li>\n<li>Bishop Gilson University<\/li>\n<li>International Christian University<\/li>\n<li>European American University<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The National Accreditation Board by this statement is advising all foreign tertiary education institutions with the intent to confer any academic awards on personalities in Ghana to seek its initial approval. Further, we wish to reiterate our resolve and commitment to work with the security agencies and all stakeholders to put a stop to these embarrassing and worrying activities by these unscrupulous groups, which cast a slur or disdain on our international reputation.<\/p>\n<p>SIGNED<\/p>\n<p>KINGSLEY NYARKO<\/p>\n<p>EXECUTIVE SECRETARY<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you have been awarded an honorary doctorate degree from any of these institutions in the country, then you are holding a fake (PhD) because the institutions in question have no power to confer such degrees by the National Accreditation Board (NAB) According to a statement from the National Accreditation Board and copied to MyNewsGh.com, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11247,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"iawp_total_views":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11246","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-top-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
