Despite a directive from the Ministry of Public Administration, the appointment of the new chairman for the National Teachers’ Registration and Certification Authority (NTRCA) remains unapproved by the Ministry of Education. The necessary file confirming the appointment has yet to be officially sanctioned, hindering the chairman’s ability to assume duties. This delay follows over a month since the official appointment notification was issued. The lack of approval is creating operational challenges for the NTRCA, an organization crucial for teacher registration and certification processes nationwide. Sources indicate the Ministry of Education has not publicly stated the reason for the hold-up. The stalled appointment raises questions about administrative efficiency and potential disruptions to the NTRCA’s ongoing work. This situation impacts the timely processing of teacher registrations and certifications across the country.
