ACCRA, Ghana, August 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Access to Scientific and Educational Content to Strengthen Ghanaian's Educational System and Promote Long-term Growth in Science and Innovation  

Elsevier, a world-leading provider of scientific, technical and medical information products and services, today announces its collaboration with the National Council for Tertiary Education (NCTE). This collaboration will provide nearly 45 thousand students and faculty at Ghana's 38 Colleges of Education with access to 2,000 books through ScienceDirect College Edition, Elsevier's full-text platform for research literature, tailored towards institutes of higher education.

This three-year license agreement, signed yesterday by Elsevier Chairman, Youngsuk "Y.S." Chi and NCTE Executive Secretary, Prof. Mohammed Salifu, will support the efforts of Ghana's academic community to enhance education and further stimulate research and innovation. The signing ceremony brought together government representatives, university leaders, policy experts, scientists and researchers.

"The Colleges of Education now have access to ScienceDirect, a very important resource which empowers faculty and students with access to high-quality, up-to-date information," said Prof. Salifu. "This access is crucial, but it is equally important to build capacity and train faculty and students so that they can effectively use the content they now have access to. We look forward to this collaboration with Elsevier and working together to build capacity within the Colleges of Education."

Going forward, we are excited to further increase our engagement with the educational and scientific communities in Ghana to support the country as it continues along this strong trajectory."
