| Overview of E.P. College of Education, Amedzofe |
The Evangelical Presbyterian College of Education, Amedzofe was opened on 10th February, 1946 by the E. P. Church. The College was started by Rev. W. M. Beveridge of blessed memory, a Scottish missionary who was by then the supervisor of Schools. He served as the first Principal between 1946 and 1962, a period of 16 years, and left behind a rich professional legacy and a strong Christian tradition are so ingrained in every AMECO trained teacher that he or she is easily identified in the field. The young College which started as a male institution with an initial teaching staff of six, went co-educational in January, 1950 when 20 females teacher trainees were admitted along-side 40 men. The College was initially opened as a 2-year Certificate 'B' teacher training College and was called E. P. Training College, Amedzofe. In 1962 the 4-year Certificate 'A' Programme was added to the College.
