Former Executive Directeur, COTVET. Dr. Jan Good morning to you all
It is with great pride and joy that we gather here today to mark the successful completion of the long-awaited Capacity Building Workshop in CNC (Computer Numerical Control), supported by UNICEF. This initiative has been a testament to our commitment to advancing technical education and skills development in Kumasi Technical Institute and beyond.
First and foremost, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to our collaborating Institution Kumasi Technical University, as well as UNICEF, for their unwavering support and dedication to this cause. Your contributions have been instrumental in providing the resources and expertise necessary for this program’s success. Let me also take this opportunity to express sincere appreciation to the Program facilitator Mr. Isaac Amankwaa for his cooperatrive service to the Institute, KTI. He has been very instrumental in this cause.
To our esteemed faculty members and staff of the Mechanical Engineering Department, I commend you for your tireless efforts and commitment to excellence. Your dedication to imparting knowledge and skills to our students is truly commendable. You have played a pivotal role in shaping the future of these young minds.
To the participants of the CNC training program, congratulations on reaching this significant milestone. Your hard work, determination, and enthusiasm have brought you to this moment. The skills you have acquired during this training will undoubtedly open new doors of opportunity and empower you to excel in the field of mechanical engineering.
The CNC training program has equipped you with the knowledge and practical skills to operate and maintain advanced machinery, ensuring that you are well- prepared to meet the demands of the modern manufacturing industry. This training is not just about mastering technology but also about fostering innovation, creativity, and problem-solving abilities.
In the realm of production engineering, CNC technology plays a crucial role. It revolutionizes the manufacturing process by enabling precision and efficiency that manual methods cannot achieve. CNC machines are capable of performing complex tasks with high accuracy, reducing waste, and increasing productivity. By mastering CNC technology, our students are now empowered to contribute significantly to the manufacturing industry, ensuring that Ghana remains competitive on a global scale.
As we celebrate the achievements of this program, let us remember that education and skill development are the cornerstones of progress. It is through initiatives like this that we can drive economic growth, create job opportunities, and improve the quality of life for our communities.
