In a landmark announcement witnessed by German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier, Ghana’s Minister of Education, Haruna Iddrisu has revealed that AMBYLON, a cutting-edge education technology company, has been chosen as the strategic partner to spearhead the complete digital transformation of the nation’s education system. This was contained in a joint press conference, held in the presence of President Steinmeier during his official visit, which underscored the historic nature of the collaboration. Ghana aims to be the first country with a fully digitalized education framework, ensuring modern, inclusive, and accessible learning for every student. The initiative will be executed in close partnership with key Ghanaian institutions: the Ministry of Education, the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA)—the country’s curriculum authority—and the Centre for National Distance Learning and Open Schooling (CENDLOS), which leads digital and distance learning efforts. AMBYLON will integrate its advanced learning management systems, content development tools, and immersive virtual reality (VR)-based educational experiences into Ghana’s national curriculum. This fusion is designed to align with the government’s vision for equitable growth and opportunity through technology-driven education. “Ghana is setting a global benchmark,” stated Jörn Halsinger, Founder and CEO of AMBYLON. “The government is demonstrating vision and bold leadership by embracing digital education as a cornerstone of opportunity, growth, and equality. We are deeply honoured to contribute to this historic transformation.” Details of the cooperation are still being finalised among the partners. Implementation is set to commence in 2026, beginning with pilot programs in select regions before a nationwide rollout. This partnership marks a significant step in Ghana’s digital agenda, potentially positioning the West African nation as a pioneer in edtech innovation on the global stage.
