Authorities at the Ministry of Youth and Sports, have begun training the training of at least 100 teachers in for its vocational and technical programs in Monrovia. Over the years one of the biggest problems the country has been facing is the lack of trained teachers in the vocational and technical areas. The training is the first of its kind that will lay the basis for much stronger involvement in the Technical Vocational Education Training (TVET) sector. There has been no training center with the exception of the Kakata Rural Teachers Training Institute KRTTI, for the regular teachers. The training brought together teachers from the fifteen counties, the ten day event has targeted specific teachers who over the years demonstrated good performance records in terms of their commitment to their institutions.
