The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) has inaugurated and handed over a resource centre to the University of Cape Coast School of Business.
The resource centre which was inaugurated by the Provost of the College of Humanities and Legal Studies, Prof. Osei Kwarteng is made up of a computer lab and a library.
Speaking to ATL FM NEWS, The West and Central Africa Education Relationship Lead for the Association, Kwaku Anim Boadu said the centre is purposed to aid the development of the accountancy profession at the University of Cape Coast.
He noted that with the University of Cape Coast being one of ACCA’s biggest partners and with the institution’s high-performing students, the resource centre will be beneficial.
