Kibi Presbyterian College of Education is a teacher education college in Kibi (East Akim Municipal District, Eastern Region, Ghana). The college is located in Eastern / Greater Accra zone. It is one of the about 40 public colleges of education in Ghana. The college participated in the DFID-funded T-TEL programme. History The College was founded in October 1963. Miss Martha Baehler was the Principal of the college and had an initial staff of six. Eighty female students were admitted to pursue the four-year post middle course. In the early years the staff and students had to contend with the problem of inadequate accommodation. An administration block was built for the college in 1966. Work on a dormitory block and a classroom block started in 1965. By the 1966/67 academic year the college had a total enrolment of about 200. The accommodation problem was still prevalent. Only 3 of the 16 staff were resident on the compound. The crowning moment of the early years of struggle for the establishment of a future great College came with the holding of a Commendation Service for the first batch of students to pass out at Kibi Presbyterian Church with the Moderator, Rt. Rev. G.K. Sintim Misa as the officiating minister. Between 1970 and 1980, a number of staff bungalows, a five –unit classroom block, a two-storey dormitory block and a Home Science block with practice house were built. In 1972 some buildings at the premises of Kibi Men's Training College, which had been phased out a year earlier were given to the college. In 1976, the College became co-educational with the admission of sixteen male students. It was then renamed Kibi Presbyterian Training College. The courses pursued by students continued to be the four-year post-middle programme until 1988, when the four-year course was phased out countrywide and replaced with the three-year post secondary course. The last batch of four-year students, and the first batch of three- year post secondary students passed out in 1991. The period from the second half of the 1990s to the present has been marked by considerable face-lift and upgrading. Classrooms, dormitories, a library and staff bungalows have been rehabilitated. The course offered was upgraded to Diploma in Basic Education in October 2004. On September 1, 2007 the college was granted accreditation as a tertiary institution. The vision of the founders has been fulfilled - the products permeate all walks
