The Ghana Education Service (GES) has said that teachers going for Further studies should pursue courses that are relevant to the profession before they can be upgraded.

According to the GES, it was prudent for teachers to pursue courses that would have an impact on their works as teachers than offer courses that are unrelated to their teaching profession.
The GES urged teachers to be circumspect in their decisions regarding the kind of courses the pursue since that could affect their chances of being upgraded using the certificates they may have acquired through the courses.
