Dr Augustine Quashigah, Head of the Social Studies Department, University of Education, Winneba, on Saturday said achieving the golden age of business required the training of relevant manpower to develop the country's economy.
He therefore urged institutions and government to channel more resources and facilities into business related training schools to churn out products that would help realized the dream.
Dr Quashigah said this at the launch of the 70th anniversary of the Keta Business Senior High School on the theme: "70 years of Quality Education, Prospects, Challenges and the Way Forward."
He called on the students to eschew laziness, indiscipline, examination mal-practices and rather become studious in the pursuit of their academic goals for a better future.
Mr Winfred Frealar Kwamivi, National President of the Old Students Association, said quality education was the foundation for shaping every individual.
"However, quality education comes with its challenges ranging from infrastructure development and learning resources and Ketabusco is no exception".
He said the school was faced with numerous challenges that were hampering teaching and learning. "This long hall and the wooden structure has been our cherished mother which accommodated us over the years".
Mr Kwamivi said despite the challenges, the school had become the centre of attraction in industry, business organizations and tertiary institutions and "this is due to the 'can do spirit' irrespective of the lack of infrastructure".
He urged the old students to come on board and assist the students in the provision of infrastructure. "Let us re-brand our school and give the future generation a hope".
Mr Augustine Akpakli, Headmaster of the school, said though the school is the second oldest in the Volta Region, it lacked adequate facilities and infrastructure.
He said the school does not have a library, typing pool, home economics block, dormitories, science laboratory and staff bungalows. "The administration block, which was started more than 10 years ago, is still not completed".
Mr Akpakli said the achievement of the school with its limited facilities should inspire all stakeholders to continue to strive hard to improve facilities in the school and added "The school indeed needs urgent attention".
