UOG Reform to improve teacher training

According to the University Chancellor, Joe Wemin, University of Goroka is acting in response to the current demand from the stakeholder and national need for quality secondary school teachers.

Since its establishment in 1961 as a teachers’ college, the University of Goroka has grown in academic programs, infrastructure, staff and students. A major transition took place in 1997 when the UOG ACT was passed, making it a fully-fledged University.
