An international organisation, Instill Education says it plans to collaborate with the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN) on teacher professional development.
The group made this known during an advocacy visit to the Executive Secretary, TRCN, Prof. Josiah Ajiboye in Abuja.

Speaking during the visit, Ghana Country Lead of Instill Education, Sarah Osei, who led the team, said that the vision of the group was to transform teaching and school leadership across Africa.

Osei said that the group had taken steps to extend operations to Nigeria in 2023 through TRCN.

She added that the group would also leverage on TRCN’s robust database of teachers, while pledging to commence its collaboration with the council in the first quarter of 2023 to train Nigerian teachers for eight weeks.

According to her, the training, which is a pilot test intervention programme, is to equip teachers with 21st century skills to address identified professional development gaps.
Responding, the Registrar of TRCN, Prof. Josiah Ajiboye, expressed delight over the visit and reiterated the council’s readiness for partnership and synergy to build the capacity of Nigerian teachers.

Instill Education is a pan- African EdTech higher education institution focusing on teacher capacity development and professionalism to reposition Africa towards achieving continental and global education goals to improve learning outcomes.

The organisation, with headquarters in Johannesburg, South Africa, has since 2015, delivered over 1.5 million hours of professional development, coaching and mentoring sessions to above 100,000 teachers and school leaders across five countries which include Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Uganda and India.
