So all government will need to do is to relax, and use the profits to develop the country. That is how some of the developed countries are progressing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfricans are knowledgeable. God has given them knowledge and they can do so much when given the chance. How can government be the sole body to be managing Agric, education, mines, health, energy, and the rest? It will always be under pressure,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Fynn criticised the \u201cquick wealth\u201d making attitude of some potential entrepreneurs and business men and women, saying that could endanger their businesses and personal development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople are not honest at all sometimes. You start a business with an intention of making it big at the initial stage and having big cars, houses, gorgeous woman, and so much wealth. That will collapse the business even before you start making any gains,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The Wisconsin University, he said, was therefore training entrepreneurs who would not add up to the canker of unemployed graduates, but be employers to employ others.<\/p>\n<p>To reduce the burden on cost of education on parents and learners, Dr Fynn said the University had reduced the cost of their MBA programme by 50 per cent from GHS36,000 to GHS18,000 to enable applicants access good education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are not interested in the money but in serving the people and giving them knowledge and hands on skills,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Albert Kwabena Dwumfour, the President, Ghana Journalists Association, lauded the Chancellor for the continuous support for the Association and requested more areas of collaboration such as organisation of free training programmes for Journalists as well as establishing scholarship programmes for Journalists at the University.<\/p>\n<p>This would enable members to upgrade themselves to deliver more professionally on the job. He said the Association would also ensure that the Wisconsin Chapter of the GJA was established to encourage students to equip themselves better for the job market.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Dwumfour commended the school for successes chalked within 22 years of existence and implored all journalists to support it for national development. He also lauded the University for producing graduates who were helping to run the country in different ways.<\/p>\n<p>The GJA President gave an assurance of the Association\u2019s readiness to partner an institution like Wisconsin to drive government\u2019s agenda of promoting development.<\/p>\n<p>Wisconsin International University College is a private experiential university established in 2000. It offers programmes like BA, Bsc, MA and MSc in Communication Studies, Nursing, Law, Music, and Entrepreneurship, among others.<\/p>\n<p>For its Law School, it has a Moot Court for practical lessons, radio and television studios for its Communication School, a recording studio for Music School, and a Skills lab with hospital set up and logistics for its Nursing School, among others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
