Public Notice

FINAL CAUTION-USE OF HONORARY DOCTORAL AND PROFESSORIAL TITLES IN PUBLIC

The Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) would like to send its final caution to the general public to note that henceforth, citizens with honorary doctorate and professorship should cease the use of it in public. This is to reiterate the Comnission's earlier public announcement cautioning the public on the use of honorary doctorate and professorship titles. This notice goes especially to politicians, businessmen and businesswomen, men and women of God, and any other category of persons to desist from officially using the honorary doctorate and professorship titles in their everyday life.

Such practice is deceitfiul and unethical and also tends to dilute the integrity of the higher education system, and the value of true doctoral education and promotion of the professorial system in the universities. The Commission would, from now onwards, in addition to naming and shaming those individuals who would be found to have flouted the GTEC directives take a legal action against them.

DEPUTY DIRECTOR-GENERAL

Long overdue. Nigeria needs this kind of law too.

People who aren't qualified just call themselves Dr. It has to be regulated if not, we wouldn't know the difference in the future. Its quite preposterous that anyone can be given honorary dictorate. We would have to ask which of the doctors are you? Small doctor? native doctor? conductor?
