The Nursing and Midwifery Training College, Korle Bu, is the premier institution in Ghana for nursing education and was established in 1945. Agnes Yewande Savage, the first West African woman medical doctor, supervised the establishment of the Nurses' Training School at Korle Bu, where a nurses’ ward is named after her. The college's first batch of trained midwives took their final examination in 1930. Until January 2, 2008, NMTC Korle-Bu operated as separate training institutions, that is, Nurses’ Training College and Midwifery Training School, with two principals. On January 2, 2008, in line with a Ministry of Health Policy, the two institutions were merged with one principal as the administrative head. References
