As a senior high school (SHS) student in Ghana, you have a lot of great options, especially in science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM).

Plus, they are great for all levels, from learning the basics of writing to studying engineering at a high level.

There is a big push to get kids like you interested in STEM careers because the job market is always changing. High school students in Ghana have a lot of ways to make their mark, from online tools like Coursera to award programmes at local universities.

Business And Management Courses
Accounting: Do you want to be an accountant? There are a lot of great classes to choose from, and you can even focus on taxes or auditing.
Business: If you like being your own boss, business classes are right up your alley. You’ll learn the basics as well as some more complex ideas.
Want to be a master of marketing? There are a lot of classes that can teach you the basics and the most up-to-date trends and methods.
All of these classes are great options for kids in Ghana who are in SHS. Explore your choices, find out what each course entails, and choose the best one for you.
Accounting is a very popular subject at SHS level in Ghana. It’s a great choice for anyone who wants to work in business or management because it gives them a lot of options.
You need a degree in accounting and business to become an accountant. You’ll also need to pass tests set by professional bodies like ACCA and CIMA. These are highly respected certifications that will open doors for you wherever your job takes you.
Anyone interested in records and financial accounts can make a name for themselves in the world of accounting if they work hard and don’t give up.
Entrepreneurship
Want to be your own boss and decide what to do? Then you should start your own business.
You don’t necessarily need skills or licences, but it helps to know a little bit about business management and finances. Taking a lesson in these areas in high school can give you an edge when you start your own business.
It’s not always easy to run your own business. You’ll face problems like not having enough money, finding trusted suppliers, and not knowing how to sell your business. But anyone can make something amazing from scratch if they are ambitious and work hard enough. And that’s why running your own business is so fulfilling.
If you want a job where hard work is more important than just having the right skills, look no further than entrepreneurship. If you have the right attitude and keep going, you can do anything.
Marketing
Marketing is where it’s at in Business and Management classes. It’s important for any business because if you don’t promote your product or service well, no one will know about it.
If you know how to sell yourself and your business, you may be able to beat out other people in your field. A marketing class in high school is very helpful for people who want to start their own business because it covers important topics like branding, advertising campaigns, SEO strategies, market research, social media management, and more.
Mastering these skills can help you move up in your field by letting you target specific customers and get your brand more attention. So, if you want to make changes in business, marketing should be at the top of your list of things to learn.
Courses in the arts and humanities
In Ghana, students in SHS can choose from a wide range of classes and careers in the Arts and Humanities area. From Psychology to History to Languages, there are a lot of great classes that can help you have a great future.
Let’s look at three great choices for people who want to get a degree in the arts or humanities:
Drama: SHS students love drama because it gives them a chance to be artistic. Drama schools teach you how to act, make costumes, and make a stage set. They also teach you how to tell stories on stage. With this information, grads can go into the stage, work in TV production, or even direct movies.
History is a very important subject to study because it helps us understand the past and make choices based on what we know. A student who gets a degree in history will learn about different countries by looking into different events in the past. This could help you get jobs as a teacher at colleges or places all over the country.
Psychology: High kids who want to get ahead in their careers are becoming more interested in the field. It’s all about studying ideas and doing studies with people from all walks of life to learn more about how people act. Graduates might work in mental health counselling, social work, or even marketing and advertising efforts.
Students at SHS can be sure that no matter what they do after they graduate, the skills they’ve learned in school will help them in whatever job they choose.
Chances of Getting a Job After College
Senior high school kids in Ghana should take arts and humanities classes because they help them learn a wide range of skills that can be used in many different jobs. Literature, history, politics, philosophy, and the fine arts all offer different ways to study, so students can follow their own hobbies. With the right help and drive, these subjects can help students get ready for success after they graduate.
When it comes to getting a job after school, people with degrees in the Arts and Humanities have a lot of options. People who like to read and write may be able to find work in media or school services. History majors might want to work in libraries or archives, while sociology majors might want to do social study or make policy. Philosophy graduates have skills that could make them great candidates for jobs in law firms or public relations. People who have studied fine art can look for jobs in editing, design, or advertising.
No matter what area they go into, SHS grads need to work on their communication skills if they want to do well in their careers. If you want to get ahead in a competitive field, you need to be able to explain your ideas simply and briefly. Don’t forget to work on this skill while you’re in college.
