All qualified teachers employed before September 1, 2018, are required to log on to the National Teaching Council (NTC) Teacher Portal Ghana (TPG) via tpg.ntc.gov.gh and register. The deadline for registration has been extended.
Teachers who fail to avail themselves for the licensing and registration exercise, NTC has said shall lose their right to practise as teachers in Ghana in accordance with section 64 (I) of the Education Regulatory Bodies Act, 2020, Act 1023.
