WCEA is a social impact technology company that provides sustainable technology solutions for Continuing Professional Development & lifelong learning. 

“In this era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), any organization that wants to be more efficient must leverage on Information Communication Technologies to propel its development & transformation agenda.
The 4IR has brought to the fore, the important role that ICT can play in the education, training and practice of nursing and midwifery in Ghana. The Council’s partnership with WCEA to provide a free online platform for Nursing and Midwifery Trainees and Practitioners to gain access to a myriad of professional courses is significant and key in Ghana’s effort to attain Universal Health Coverage by 2030.
The Council is wholeheartedly committed to this partnership with the expectation that more training programs will be rolled out to equip our Trainees and Practitioners to contribute to building a robust and resilient healthcare system in Ghana.”

Mr. Felix Nyante
CEO & Registrar Nursing and Midwifery Council of Ghana

“I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank Felix and his amazing team at NMC Ghana for their support. In 19 months since we launched in Ghana, we have managed to connect with and train over 80,000 nurses, midwives and students.”

Craig Fitzpatrick
WCEA Programme Director

We are proud to welcome our new educational partners: The Ariadne Labs & Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health, The American Nurses Association, The International Home Care Nursing Organization, and the International Society for Psychiatric-Mental health Nurses.

With the help of the Yale School of Public Health, in August was held the first of a series of webinars organized and sponsored by the WCEA. “Mental Wellness and Self Care for Health Care Works in Sub-Saharan Africa” was attended by more than 1,400 learners. The next webinar in this series will take place in December.
