Young Ghanaians looking for exciting world-class TVET training and the Mastercard Foundation Scholarship leading to high-paying jobs in Ghana and abroad can now get all these at Ghana’s best TVET institute.
Getting practical training in TVET training and from the best engineering and fabricating tertiary institution in Ghana starts with enrolling at the Design and Technology Institute (DTI) located in East Legon, Accra.
The high paying jobs available pay not less than $10,000 dollars and many pay above $50,000 per month.
The institute is well known for offering world-class technical and vocational training and certification for young Ghanaians and students from all over Africa.
Upon completion of a professional programme at the institute, the graduates secure high-paying jobs in oil and gas, mining companies, and other institutions that need their skills here in Ghana and anywhere in the world.
This means that accessing training in any TVET programme at DTI opens life-changing doors and opportunities for graduates.
The world’s top technical and engineering industries need professionally trained world-class welders, fabricators and other skilled tech-related professionals for high-paying jobs
These jobs will enable graduates of the Design and Technology Institute to earn a super income that is mind-blowing compared to many of the white-collar professions such as accounting, medical medicine and law.
Currently, most of the top high-paying jobs in Ghana’s oil and gas industry are only done by employed foreigners because there are not trained professionals who are Ghanaians to do these jobs.
Israel Laryer, a celebrated Ghanaian journalist who has reported extensively on Ghana’s oil and gas industry, has revealed that most of the jobs that should have gone to Ghanaians as local content have been taken up by foreigners because Ghanaians simply do not have enough professionals who have these skills.

Mastercard Foundation Scholarship At DTI
The training costs about $10,500 for the intensive 12-month training, depending on the course.
However, the Mastercard Foundation is paying 90% of the fees for all young graduates from SHS who are promising young talents and are from deprived communities around the country.
The Mastercard Foundation scholarship will cover over 200 such students.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to enrol their wards in the life-changing programmes of the Design and Technology Institute located in East Legon, Accra.
World-class TVET is the new way to escape glorified professions that do not pay well, and students need to be encouraged, informed, and given career counselling in these fields, so they can take advantage of them.
Just in case you are not successful in securing a scholarship with the Master Card Foundation, do your best to find the money to take up the fee-paying option, and you won’t regret it.
