Accra, May 19, GNA – The Law Institute (TLI) has relaunched operations and opened enrolment for its 2026 legal compliance and corporate sector programmes scheduled to begin on June 1.
The programmes would offer five professionally structured courses namely Paralegal Studies, Compliance and Regulatory Practice, Corporate Governance, Finance and Securitisation, and Gender Analysis, Policy and Advocacy.
This was contained in a press release issued by Institute and copied to the Ghana News Agency.
The statement said the programmes would be run in partnership with International Compliance Association and University of Manchester, which it described as the first collaboration of its kind in West Africa.
It said the partnership would give students access to internationally recognised ICA-certified qualifications benchmarked to global regulatory and corporate standards.
The statement said the Paralegal Studies programme would focus on foundational legal knowledge and practical skills for legal support professionals, while the Compliance and Regulatory Practice programme would cover AML/CFT frameworks, regulatory compliance and institutional risk management.
It said the Corporate Governance programme would address board effectiveness, governance frameworks and corporate accountability for directors and senior professionals, while the Finance and Securitisation programme would provide advanced training in financial law, structured finance and securitisation.
The statement said that the Gender Analysis, Policy and Advocacy programme would train professionals at the intersection of gender, law and policy to drive inclusive institutional change.
Dr Hilary Gbedemah, Rector of TLI, said the relaunch represented “a defining moment for legal and compliance education in Ghana”.
“Our ICA and University of Manchester partnership places TLI students on the international stage, and our programmes are designed to produce professionals who can navigate and shape Ghana’s evolving regulatory environment,” she said.
Ms Sophia Minkah-Premo, Director of Learning and Strategy at TLI, said Ghana’s economy was increasingly shaped by regulation, compliance obligations and the demand for professionals who understood the law.
She said TLI existed to close the gap between where Ghana’s professionals were and where the country’s economy needed them to be.
“Our programmes are rigorous, recognized, and built for working professionals. We are also offering tailored corporate training packages for organisations that need to upskill their teams because compliance and these kinds of trainings are not just an individual career decision, it is an institutional imperative,” she said.
Prospective students and organisations were encouraged to visit www.thelawinstitutegh.org or contact TLI directly at [email protected] for enquiries and registration.
