The High Court in Adentan, Ghana, has annulled a directive from the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) that invalidated degrees from the Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica (UNEM). The court determined GTEC acted outside the bounds of the law when issuing the directive. Specifically, the ruling cited a failure to adhere to principles of natural justice in the decision-making process. This controversial directive had threatened the academic credentials of UNEM graduates in Ghana. The court’s decision effectively reinstates the recognition of UNEM qualifications within the country. This ruling represents a significant legal challenge to GTEC’s regulatory authority and its procedures.
