NSS praised for providing pedagogic training to personnel posted to teaching fields

The National Service Scheme (NSS) has been commended for offering pedagogic training to personnel posted to teaching fields.

Under the leadership of the new Executive Director, Osei Assibey Antwi, NSS has been providing special training to personnel who did not study teaching but have been posted to teaching fields.

According to the Head of Corporate Affairs for NSS, Armstrong Esaah, the scheme trained thousands of personnel in 2023 with support from Transforming Teaching, Education, and Learning (T-TEL).

The training, dubbed "Pedagogy training for untrained teachers on the NSS teaching module," aimed to equip personnel with skills in teaching, enabling them to serve effectively.

Mr. Esaah emphasized that the initiative is part of the new agenda of NSS, which focuses on mobilizing for employment rather than just deployment.

Armstrong Esaah praised the new Executive Director for introducing innovations that have transformed NSS into a more impactful and employment-focused organization.

Speaking to OTEC News reporter Kwame Agyenim Boateng on Sunday, Armstrong Esaah highlighted the significance of pedagogic training in enhancing the skills of personnel posted to teaching fields.

He emphasized that the training has enabled personnel to serve effectively, making a positive impact on the education sector.
