Alternatively, it said applicants can also dial the shortcode *772*51# to use Mobile Money to purchase the licensure examination voucher to participate in the conduct of the (March 2023) national examination for teachers.”

“For issues regarding the purchase of a GTLE voucher using mobile money, please contact; Toll-free at 0800000772 0302750420 / 0551858585,” the management of the National Teaching Council (NTC) said in the blog post.

The first phase of the ongoing registration for the 2023 Ghana Teacher Licensure Examination (GTLE) according to the management of the National Teaching Council (NTC) said is for re-sit candidates only.

“Due to the GTLE reforms implemented this year, the Council has given three chances to candidates who are associated with the traditional GTLE (Essential Professional Skills, Literacy and Numeracy) to redeem themselves,” NTC said.

It added ‘this year, two chances are available for re-sit candidates to utilise. This ongoing registration for GTLE is one of the two chances. After the two chances, there will be no examination for the traditional subjects in 2024 and beyond.

The Council in charge of the administration of the teacher licensure exams said that “any candidate of the traditional GTLE who would like to write GTLE again will have to start afresh with the GTLE dispensation in 2024 and beyond.”
