He emphasized Liberia\u2019s need for a skilled workforce to drive its development, urging leveraging of ICT and artificial intelligence for global economic opportunities. Koffa stressed the importance of human talent development, expressing hope that AMEZU\u2019s new graduate school would contribute to this effort.<\/p>\n

He challenged the university administration to align programs with the demands of technology in the global economy. Additionally, he urged a focus on entrepreneurial skills to alleviate the burden of youth unemployment on the government.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Rev. Dr. Emmanuel F. Johnson, President of AMEZU, highlighted the efforts of the Board of Trustees, administrators, and faculty in establishing the postgraduate school. He expressed gratitude to the Board of Trustees and the academic committee for their support.<\/p>\n

Rev. Johnson emphasized the importance of AMEZU\u2019s educational stewardship, marking the commencement of postgraduate programs as a significant achievement. He assured the public that the postgraduate programs would be overseen by competent academics and administrators with postgraduate degrees from accredited institutions.<\/p>\n

Rev. Johnson announced partnerships with four sister universities and underscored the commitment to quality teaching and learning. He also mentioned plans to modernize the Graduate School infrastructure, including potential solarization for environmental sustainability.<\/p>\n

AMEZU aims to support nation-building through its educational agenda, preparing national and world leaders through its undergraduate and postgraduate programs. Rev.
