On October 23rd 2002, sixteen members of Ghana's National Accreditation Board (NAB) arrived on the Ashesi campus to learn more about the university's academic program, facilities and progress. In setting up this visit, the Deputy Executive Secretary of the NAB explained that Ashesi is considered to be one of the best new universities operating in Ghana today and is thus referred to as an example for others to see. As such, NAB members wished to see the campus for themselves so that they may speak authoritatively about Ashesi.
NAB members were given a presentation and a tour of the campus and departed from campus armed with useful first-hand information about life at Ashesi.
