    Introduction:

    The Public Sector Management Training Program (PSMTP) was identified, developed and validated by representatives of training institutions, the public sector, civil society and donors, to address the need to increase the supply of qualified public sector managers on the African continent in response to a study commissioned by ACBF.  In December 2004, the ACBF Executive Board approved a grant total of US$ 12 million to support the PSMTP for four universities in Sub Saharan Africa. 

    Project Description:

    The main goal of PSMTP is to improve the performance of the public sector through the provision of balanced academic and professional training in public sector management in Africa.

The remarkable achievements ACBF has registered over the past 26 years is not by accident in our opinion. They have come through hard work, dedication, commitment, purposeful leadership, support from the member countries as well as productive partnership building.

Africa needs ACBF as much, probably more now, than at the time it was created in 1991.

Ghana’s partnership with ACBF is a tremendous blessing for us and therefore the opportunity for Ghana to host the 26th ACBF Board of Governors Meeting is something that we treasure.
