Brothers FIC

IN-SERVICE TRAINING CENTRE, WA

The In-Service Training Centre was formerly the St. Louis Preparatory School - a school which used to accept boys from primary six and groom them for one academic year, so as to prepare them to sit the Common Entrance Examination into the senior secondary school. But when the Education Reforms in Ghana were introduced in 1987, the Common Entrance Exam was abolished. This implied that the St louis Preparatory School had out-lived its usefulness. It was therefore decided by the then Provincial Administration of the Brothers FIC to convert the Preparatory school into an In-Service Training Centre, in the year 1991.
The vision of the In-Service Training Centre is to be a model centre within the Diocese of Wa, in providing various means (workshops, seminars, and conferences) for the updating and on-going formation needs of personnel of church and civil organisations.
This is done in accordance with the developmental policies of the Diocese, especially with the view to ensuring evangelisation through effective and sustainable pastoral ministry.
It is important to note that there is currently a Board of Governors for the centre. This Board is charged with a /o fashioning out a youth programme for the centre, both on short-term and long-term basis. The Board intends to carry out a training-needs assessment, on the basis of which long-term programmes that will address the issues of Christian formation, may be organised by the centre. Currently, the Centre is running a programme to develop a syllabus for the teaching of religious education in primary and junior secondary schools (JSS), that will be based on the principles and teachings of the catholic church.
