  8. Recommendations • Develop a comprehensive policy document on tertiary education- scholarships, strategic national priorities, projections on national tertiary education needs, funding etc.. (MoESS/NCTE/Tertiary institutions) • Make other forms of tertiary education attractive by linking their training to the job market (MOESS, NCTE, AGI,, MMYE, GEA, Tertiary institutions) • Use the opportunity offered to upgrade TTCs to tertiary status to improve quality of teacher training. (MOESS, NCTE, GES, Colleges of Education) • Provide scholarships for science and technology related courses (MOESS) • Support universities to undertake research and to strengthen post-graduate training • Have a loan scheme that meets the needs of needy students.
