Community Teachers for Ghana: The United States Government, represented by the U.S.Agency for International Development (USAID/Ghana) is seeking applications from qualified organizations to implement a program to place 260 community teachers in the Millennium Development Authority (MiDA) operational areas of Ghana. The authority for the RFA is found in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended. The objective of the community teacher program is to: 1) recruit, train, and support teachers for the MiDA and ODC schools; 2) build the capacity of district education offices, head teachers, SMCs/PTAs to support the community teachers as a means to addressing on-going teacher shortages; 3) assist community teachers in improving their teaching qualifications to increase the chances that these teachers are incorporated into the formal Ghana Education Service (GES) professional teaching cadre.
