A delegation from Michigan State University in the United States of America has paid a courtesy call on the Provost of the College of Education Studies (CES) of the University of Cape Coast (UCC), Prof. Ernest Kofi Davis. The visit formed part of the Reeves Scholars Programme.
The Reeves Scholars Programme (RSP) is a global community of future educators working together to become the best educators and make an impact in their classrooms, their communities, and the world.
Welcoming the students, Prof. Ernest Kofi Davis, explained that the Reeves Scholars Programme was one of the many collaborations the College had with Michigan State University.
He noted that the collaboration - initiated in 2019 - had equipped the Ghanaian and American students with the requisite knowledge and skills to make a significant difference in their future teaching careers, making them global educators.
