Entrepreneurship Training Institute - Accra

A large number of successful Entrepreneurs in Ghana, Africa and across the world, whether in commerce, manufacturing, entertainment, religion, education etc. may only be responding to their innate abilities and a desire to achieve at the time they start their business operations.

The Entrepreneurship Training Institute (ETI) believes that this traditional view of entrepreneurship, which seeks to suggest, “Entrepreneurs are born and not made” is no longer tenable and that businesses, within the current global economic environment, cannot possibly continue to operate on the basis of “luck”. The need for formal training in entrepreneurship therefore cannot be overlooked.

ETI began as an Association of Certified Entrepreneurs in 2005 with the main aim of bringing entrepreneurs together to share ideas, assist each other and offer further training for members who needed it. It was also to give a platform for Ghanaian entrepreneurs to share their opinions and views on national issues.

The Entrepreneurship Training Institute, in September 2007 was accredited by the National Accreditation Board and gained affiliation with the University of Education Winneba, and the University of Cape Coast that same year to ran tertiary programs.
