Inauguration of the Ghana TVET Service Headquarters

• By: Michael
• No Comments

This Government is equipping the youth with job ready skills through massive investment in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET). Today, 7th June, 2022, I joined Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for the inauguration of multiple projects to facilitate the teaching and learning of TVET. The projects include: the inauguration of the Ghana TVET Service Headquarters, Applied Technology Institute and the distribution of vehicles to some selected TVET institutions. The vehicles distributed were 37 buses, 21 double cabin pickups, 2 tractors, 3 Toyota Fortuners and 1 Toyota V8 Landcruiser, as well as 26 Computer Based Training occupational standards designed in the selected trade areas.

Ghana is located in West Africa and is sandwiched between Cote d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast) and Togo.

Ghana is located in West Africa and is sandwiched between Cote d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast) and Togo. The northern border is the country Burkina Faso and the southern border is the Gulf of Guinea. The country is slightly smaller than the state of Oregon. The landscape consists mainly of plains and low plateaus covered by rain forests in the west and Lake Volta in the east.

PEOPLE & CULTURE

Children in Ghana begin two years of kindergarten at age four. Then all children ages 6-12 attend six years of elementary education. If families can afford it, children go on to secondary education. Ghana’s school system is more advanced than many of its African neighbors.

There are over 50 different ethnic groups in Ghana, each with their own customs and languages. But the country is harmonious and peaceful. The Akan tribe is the largest group and makes up about 45 percent of the population. They live mostly in villages and grow their food on farms.

The traditional cloth of the Ghanaian people is the bright and colorful kente cloth. In the north, the men wear loose flowing clothes made of darker cloth.

Ghanaians love soccer and built a large soccer stadium in the capital of Accra. Soccer is the national sport.

Kofi Annan is one of the most well-known Ghanaians. He served as secretary-general of the United Nations from 1997- 2006.

There are six national parks and many smaller nature reserves, which were set up to help protect Ghana’s wildlife. There are over 650 butterfly species in the Kakum National Park, including the giant swallowtails, which are nearly 8 inches (20 centimeters) across.

The park is also home to leopards , hornbills, Diana monkeys, flying squirrels, and scarlet-tailed African gray parrots.

Elephants , leopards , wild buffalo, and antelope were once plentiful across the savanna, but now are found mostly in nature reserves. Elephants , crocodiles , warthogs , and hippos can be seen around the watering holes in the Mole National Park.

Poisonous snakes such as the cobra and puff adder are native to Ghana as are pythons, which don’t bite, but can squeeze their victims to death.

The baobab tree grows in the northern parts Ghana and other savannas in Africa. Ghanaians eat the large, gourd-like fruit, they make barrels from the trunk, the tree provides shade from the sun, and the bark can be made into rope and clothing.

The Volta River was dammed in the 1960s and created Lake Volta, one of the Earth’s largest artificial lakes.

The president is the head of government and the head of state in Ghana. The president and vice president are elected every four years. A council of ministers is selected by the president and approved by the parliament. The ministers are made of heads of different departments of state in the government.

There is also a system of tribal government in addition to the national government.

Before the Europeans arrived in search of gold, the west coast of Africa was part of an ancient trade route. In 1471, Portuguese traders came ashore and noticed that the local people wore gold jewelry.

People from Portugal, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, and Britain came to the Gold Coast to search for gold. The British took control of the country in the 20th century and declared the Gold Coast a colony of the British Empire.

In 1957, the Gold Coast gained its independence from Britain and became known as Ghana. After many corrupt governments, Ghana’s new leader in 1981, Jerry Rawlings, vowed to stop corruption. Democracy involving many parties started in 1992 when a new constitution was adopted.

Wow, what a great place. The ambience is amazing. Nicely upscale without being stuffy or complicated. Lovely piano music on this Saturday night. The food dishes coming out are beautifully played and do not appear skimpy. I ordered the spaghetti with pesto and garlic and added the beautiful, plump shrimp for an additional $12- worth the price. I had a glass of Alamos Malbec for only $8. The cappuccino was $5 and dessert was $10- a key lime pie that I shared with four people. So light and delicious. This place is a new hidden gem in Rl Paso and deserves our support!

We had a fantastic evening at Forty Love located at Tennis West. Forty Love, is a new restaurant located at Tennis West in the Upper Valley. It has offers a great patio surrounded by pine trees and a large pond that offers a relaxing zen feeling. It's at 1 Tennis West Lane, along Westside Drive and near Country Club Road. What a pleasant surprise as it is in my neck of the woods! 40- Love offers a combination of great sushi and sashimi with modern American fusion food. A very eclectic menu to say the least and a relaxing and Western Texas comfort decor! Service was impeccable very pleasant and effective. The food was a little bit on the salty side but all dishes were well prepared with original and beautiful presentation. The bar looks great and is a pleasant destination for drinks and cocktails. Come on Yelpers let's support this local business!!!

I'm giving this an above average grade because I ordered a pastrami sandwich and got some low-grade beef sandwich instead. (see attached photo). Otherwise, everything else was wonderful. The calamari was great, and I heard the mussels were something to die for. I had to get a real pastrami sandwich from Firehouse to renew my confidence in pastrami. Just advising everything on the menu, I'm sure is great; just DON'T ORDER THE PASTRAMI! Good luck!

Guess which is the real pastrami?

We had an amazing dinner here recently! It's hidden back in Tennis West but when you get inside you feel like you have transported to phoenix or Santa Fe the place is beautifully decorated. The background music is the perfect sound level for enjoying your meal. The service was outstanding. Now the food...I had the pork chop which was literally the best pork chop I have ever had! It came with Brussels sprouts and a little bit of sweet potato puree and the three flavors on every spoonful were amazing. It was so good I will return again! Everyone at the table thoroughly enjoyed their meals as well and of course the appetizers were fantastic too. Well done! We will return!

While the ambiance is great the service we received was terrible. I ordered the Anaheim Pasta with chicken and they brought it to me eith shrimp. Our friends did not get the salad they ordered and one of their pizzas was cold. They never refilled our drinks, we had to ask for place settings snd salt and pepper, which took almost 5 minutes to get. Hopefully they get better staff. I recommend going somewhere else.

The ambience is very nice. My sister and I split 2 appetizers (calamari and steamed mussels). Both were very good and the bread that came with the mussels was nice, but there could have been more of it and a side plate to put the shells on would have been helpful. Our service was good and the young lady was very nice. She did pretty good considering it was her first week. We will definitely be back.

We were so delighted to eat at this wonderful restaurant. The food was superb and the service was good too. The owners also did a great job of decorating the place. Very good for many occasions!

Record number of Oregonians disconnected from electric, gas service as rates climb

More Oregonians had their electricity or natural gas service cut off in April than at any time in the six years the state’s been tracking disconnections, according to a presentation the head of the Oregon Citizens’ Utility Board gave to a state Senate committee on Thursday.

“Last month, 8,715 Oregon households were disconnected because of nonpayment of their bills to investor-owned utilities — both gas and electric,” Bob Jenks, executive director of the voter-created nonprofit Citizens’ Utility Board, told the Senate Interim Committee on Energy and Environment.

Bob Jenks, executive director of the Oregon Citizens' Utility Board.

Oregon State Legislature

Jenks attributed the disconnections to higher natural gas and electric rates, exacerbated by inflation that has pushed up other household costs. January’s abnormally cold weather, which led to higher heating bills, was also a factor, he said.

“That’s just flabbergasting,” Republican Sen. Lynn Findley of Vale, vice chair of the Senate committee, said, in response to Jenks’ report.

Findley and other Republicans on the committee differed with Jenks on solutions to the problem of rapidly rising rates. The utility watchdog is advocating for caps on how much utilities can raise energy bills each year, changes to how for-profit private utility rates are approved and other regulatory solutions. Some Republicans advocated for less pressure to move away from fossil fuels and a focus on expanding energy supply.

But all shared concern for people struggling to pay their bills. “It’s sobering to me that there’s 8,715 shutoffs,” Findley said.

To better understand the people most vulnerable to having their electricity shut off, the Citizens’ Utility Board analyzed two years of power use of people living in poorly insulated manufactured homes in Ontario, an area of Eastern Oregon served by Idaho Power.

Those customers used the most electricity in January and December each year — when temperatures are coldest, and also when rate hikes are typically enacted in Oregon, Jenks said.

Related: Utility watchdog calls to cap Oregon rate hikes as energy bills continue to rise

“These folks are paying hundreds of dollars to heat their homes, and most of these are the kind of families, the kind of folks, that live on fixed incomes, or really live paycheck to paycheck,” he said.

Bills can climb by more than $200 in a month when rate hikes and cold snaps coincide, which can be devastating for customers.

“It’s not surprising that winter rate hikes, combined with cold weather, is leading to these kinds of shutoffs,” Jenks said.

In just over two years, residential customers of Northwest Natural have seen rates climb 42.7%. At Pacific Power, rates have gone up 35.2% and Portland General electric rates have risen 43.8%.

Those utilities, along with Idaho Power, have all asked for additional residential rate increases this year. The Oregon Public Utility Commission is considering requests to raise rates 18% by Northwest Natural, 7.2% by PGE, 21.6% by Pacific Power and 27% by Idaho Power.

“Customers are unable to keep up with these rising utility rates, and that has led to the unprecedented number of disconnections last month,” Jenks said. “And it’s not getting any better. There’s no reason to believe next winter will be any easier for customers.”

What is cloud computing?

With cloud computing, organizations essentially buy a range of services offered by cloud service providers (CSPs). The CSP’s servers host all the client’s applications. Organizations can enhance their computing power more quickly and cheaply via the cloud than by purchasing, installing, and maintaining their own servers.

The cloud-computing model is helping organizations to scale new digital solutions with greater speed and agility—and to create value more quickly. Developers use cloud services to build and run custom applications and to maintain infrastructure and networks for companies of virtually all sizes—especially large global ones. CSPs offer services, such as analytics, to handle and manipulate vast amounts of data. Time to market accelerates, speeding innovation to deliver better products and services across the world.

What are examples of cloud computing’s uses?

Get to know and directly engage with senior mckinsey experts on cloud computing.

Brant Carson is a senior partner in McKinsey’s Vancouver office; Chandra Gnanasambandam and Anand Swaminathan are senior partners in the Bay Area office; William Forrest is a senior partner in the Chicago office; Leandro Santos is a senior partner in the Atlanta office; Kate Smaje is a senior partner in the London office.

Cloud computing came on the scene well before the global pandemic hit, in 2020, but the ensuing digital dash  helped demonstrate its power and utility. Here are some examples of how businesses and other organizations employ the cloud:

• A fast-casual restaurant chain’s online orders multiplied exponentially during the 2020 pandemic lockdowns, climbing to 400,000 a day, from 50,000. One pleasant surprise? The company’s online-ordering system could handle the volume—because it had already migrated to the cloud . Thanks to this success, the organization’s leadership decided to accelerate its five-year migration plan to less than one year.
• A biotech company harnessed cloud computing to deliver the first clinical batch of a COVID-19 vaccine candidate for Phase I trials in just 42 days—thanks in part to breakthrough innovations using scalable cloud data storage and computing  to facilitate processes ensuring the drug’s safety and efficacy.
• Banks use the cloud for several aspects of customer-service management. They automate transaction calls using voice recognition algorithms and cognitive agents (AI-based online self-service assistants directing customers to helpful information or to a human representative when necessary). In fraud and debt analytics, cloud solutions enhance the predictive power of traditional early-warning systems. To reduce churn, they encourage customer loyalty through holistic retention programs managed entirely in the cloud.
• Automakers are also along for the cloud ride . One company uses a common cloud platform that serves 124 plants, 500 warehouses, and 1,500 suppliers to consolidate real-time data from machines and systems and to track logistics and offer insights on shop floor processes. Use of the cloud could shave 30 percent off factory costs by 2025—and spark innovation at the same time.

That’s not to mention experiences we all take for granted: using apps on a smartphone, streaming shows and movies, participating in videoconferences. All of these things can happen in the cloud.

How has cloud computing evolved?

Going back a few years, legacy infrastructure dominated IT-hosting budgets. Enterprises planned to move a mere 45 percent of their IT-hosting expenditures to the cloud by 2021. Enter COVID-19, and 65 percent of the decision makers surveyed by McKinsey increased their cloud budgets . An additional 55 percent ended up moving more workloads than initially planned. Having witnessed the cloud’s benefits firsthand, 40 percent of companies expect to pick up the pace of implementation.

The cloud revolution has actually been going on for years—more than 20, if you think the takeoff point was the founding of Salesforce, widely seen as the first software as a service (SaaS) company. Today, the next generation of cloud, including capabilities such as serverless computing, makes it easier for software developers to tweak software functions independently, accelerating the pace of release, and to do so more efficiently. Businesses can therefore serve customers and launch products in a more agile fashion. And the cloud continues to evolve.

Introducing McKinsey Explainers : Direct answers to complex questions

Cost savings are commonly seen as the primary reason for moving to the cloud but managing those costs requires a different and more dynamic approach focused on OpEx rather than CapEx. Financial-operations (or FinOps) capabilities  can indeed enable the continuous management and optimization of cloud costs . But CSPs have developed their offerings so that the cloud’s greatest value opportunity is primarily through business innovation and optimization. In 2020, the top-three CSPs reached $100 billion  in combined revenues—a minor share of the global $2.4 trillion market for enterprise IT services—leaving huge value to be captured. To go beyond merely realizing cost savings, companies must activate three symbiotic rings of cloud value creation : strategy and management, business domain adoption, and foundational capabilities.

What’s the main reason to move to the cloud?

The pandemic demonstrated that the digital transformation can no longer be delayed—and can happen much more quickly than previously imagined. Nothing is more critical to a corporate digital transformation than becoming a cloud-first business. The benefits are faster time to market, simplified innovation and scalability, and reduced risk when effectively managed. The cloud lets companies provide customers with novel digital experiences—in days, not months—and delivers analytics absent on legacy platforms. But to transition to a cloud-first operating model, organizations must make a collective effort that starts at the top. Here are three actions CEOs can take to increase the value their companies get from cloud computing :

• Establish a sustainable funding model.
• Develop a new business technology operating model.
• Set up policies to attract and retain the right engineering talent.

How much value will the cloud create?

Fortune 500 companies adopting the cloud could realize more than $1 trillion in value  by 2030, and not from IT cost reductions alone, according to McKinsey’s analysis of 700 use cases.

For example, the cloud speeds up design, build, and ramp-up, shortening time to market when companies have strong DevOps (the combination of development and operations) processes in place; groups of software developers customize and deploy software for operations that support the business. The cloud’s global infrastructure lets companies scale products almost instantly to reach new customers, geographies, and channels. Finally, digital-first companies use the cloud to adopt emerging technologies and innovate aggressively, using digital capabilities as a competitive differentiator to launch and build businesses .

If companies pursue the cloud’s vast potential in the right ways, they will realize huge value. Companies across diverse industries have implemented the public cloud and seen promising results. The successful ones defined a value-oriented strategy across IT and the business, acquired hands-on experience operating in the cloud, adopted a technology-first approach, and developed a cloud-literate workforce.

What is the cloud cost/procurement model?

Some cloud services, such as server space, are leased. Leasing requires much less capital up front than buying, offers greater flexibility to switch and expand the use of services, cuts the basic cost of buying hardware and software upfront, and reduces the difficulties of upkeep and ownership. Organizations pay only for the infrastructure and computing services that meet their evolving needs. But an outsourcing model  is more apt than other analogies: the computing business issues of cloud customers are addressed by third-party providers that deliver innovative computing services on demand to a wide variety of customers, adapt those services to fit specific needs, and work to constantly improve the offering.

What are cloud risks?

The cloud offers huge cost savings and potential for innovation. However, when companies migrate to the cloud, the simple lift-and-shift approach doesn’t reduce costs, so companies must remediate their existing applications to take advantage of cloud services.

For instance, a major financial-services organization  wanted to move more than 50 percent of its applications to the public cloud within five years. Its goals were to improve resiliency, time to market, and productivity. But not all its business units needed to transition at the same pace. The IT leadership therefore defined varying adoption archetypes to meet each unit’s technical, risk, and operating-model needs.

Legacy cybersecurity architectures and operating models can also pose problems when companies shift to the cloud. The resulting problems, however, involve misconfigurations rather than inherent cloud security vulnerabilities. One powerful solution? Securing cloud workloads for speed and agility : automated security architectures and processes enable workloads to be processed at a much faster tempo.

What kind of cloud talent is needed?

The talent demands of the cloud differ from those of legacy IT. While cloud computing can improve the productivity of your technology, it requires specialized and sometimes hard-to-find talent—including full-stack developers, data engineers, cloud-security engineers, identity- and access-management specialists, and cloud engineers. The cloud talent model  should thus be revisited as you move forward.

Six practical actions can help your organization build the cloud talent you need :

• Find engineering talent with broad experience and skills.
• Balance talent maturity levels and the composition of teams.
• Build an extensive and mandatory upskilling program focused on need.
• Build an engineering culture that optimizes the developer experience.
• Consider using partners to accelerate development and assign your best cloud leaders as owners.
• Retain top talent by focusing on what motivates them.

How do different industries use the cloud?

Different industries are expected to see dramatically different benefits from the cloud. High-tech, retail, and healthcare organizations occupy the top end of the value capture continuum. Electronics and semiconductors, consumer-packaged-goods, and media companies make up the middle. Materials, chemicals, and infrastructure organizations cluster at the lower end.

Nevertheless, myriad use cases provide opportunities to unlock value across industries , as the following examples show:

• a retailer enhancing omnichannel  fulfillment, using AI to optimize inventory across channels and to provide a seamless customer experience
• a healthcare organization implementing remote heath monitoring to conduct virtual trials and improve adherence
• a high-tech company using chatbots to provide premier-level support combining phone, email, and chat
• an oil and gas company employing automated forecasting to automate supply-and-demand modeling and reduce the need for manual analysis
• a financial-services organization implementing customer call optimization using real-time voice recognition algorithms to direct customers in distress to experienced representatives for retention offers
• a financial-services provider moving applications in customer-facing business domains to the public cloud to penetrate promising markets more quickly and at minimal cost
• a health insurance carrier accelerating the capture of billions of dollars in new revenues by moving systems to the cloud to interact with providers through easier onboarding

The cloud is evolving  to meet the industry-specific needs of companies. From 2021 to 2024, public-cloud spending on vertical applications (such as warehouse management in retailing and enterprise risk management in banking) is expected to grow by more than 40 percent annually. Spending on horizontal workloads (such as customer relationship management) is expected to grow by 25 percent. Healthcare and manufacturing organizations, for instance, plan to spend around twice as much on vertical applications as on horizontal ones.

What are the biggest cloud myths?

Views on cloud computing can be clouded by misconceptions. Here are seven common myths about the cloud —all of which can be debunked:

• The cloud’s value lies primarily in reducing costs.
• Cloud computing costs more than in-house computing.
• On-premises data centers are more secure than the cloud.
• Applications run more slowly in the cloud.
• The cloud eliminates the need for infrastructure.
• The best way to move to the cloud is to focus on applications or data centers.
• You must lift and shift applications as-is or totally refactor them.

How large must my organization be to benefit from the cloud?

Here’s one more huge misconception: the cloud is just for big multinational companies. In fact, cloud can help make small local companies become multinational. A company’s benefits from implementing the cloud are not constrained by its size. In fact, the cloud shifts barrier to entry skill rather than scale, making it possible for a company of any size to compete if it has people with the right skills. With cloud, highly skilled small companies can take on established competitors. To realize the cloud’s immense potential value fully, organizations must take a thoughtful approach, with IT and the businesses working together.

Indian Tycoon Ambani Faces Pushback In Ghana Over Exclusive 5G Deal

• Ambani-owned company to supply network infrastructure, phones
• Minority caucus claims government agreed to “sweetheart deal”

Mukesh Ambani

A deal for Asia’s second-richest man to cash in on 5G wireless service demand in Ghana faces opposition from the country’s parliamentary minority, which has accused the administration of rushing into a “sweetheart deal.”

The Ghanaian government’s plan to launch a 5G network using a company partnering with Mukesh Ambani is a bad deal for the debt-ridden nation, which needs funds for critical development projects, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) said in a statement on Monday.
