Abstract
In year 2008, 38 publicly-owned Teacher Training Institutions (TTIs) that offered certificate programmes to prepare teachers for basic schools in Ghana, were elevated to tertiary status and re-designated as Colleges of Education (COEs) to offer tertiary programmes . Since the elevation and re-designation of TTIs as Colleges of Education, the institutions have faced various challenges which threaten the consolidation of their status as tertiary institutions. These challenges which border on governance, regulation, management, autonomy of the Colleges among others, must be critically examined and addressed to enable the institutions to discharge their mandate effectively. This article examines the challenges and prospects of Colleges of Education as they evolve as tertiary education institutions.
