The Vice Chairman of the association, Mr Emmanuel Nyavor, in a statement, observed that all was set for the public lecture to be held tomorrow.

In recent times, he said there had been a public outcry for the review of the curriculum in the tertiary institutions in order to meet the needs of industry and the world of work at large.

He said the outcry could not be overlooked due to technological changes and advancement.

“Thus the need for tertiary institutions to prepare, train and equip graduates with requisite knowledge and employable skills necessary for industry and the world of work at large is indeed a welcome call.

“The need for graduates, who are prepared for employment and skilled for the world of work, has been widely advocated over the last decade.

“The widening gap between industry and associated education sector needs to be diagnosed and given the best of treatment required leading to rapid economic transformation,” he added.
