Title A name given to the resource An Evaluation of the Beneficiary Management System of Youth Employment Agency in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Walter Yao Dzimey Description An account of the resource The Youth Employment Agency (YEA) mandated by a law in Ghana is to provide employment and employment opportunities for the youth in Ghana. The initial implementation of its activities saw a manual paper based information system, later an online Beneficiary Management System (BMIS) was introduced. This research work was conducted to evaluate the BMIS of the Youth Employment Agency of Ghana. An aspect of the research was to determine the impact of the use of the BMIS on the operations and activities of the Agency from the users and stakeholders’ perspective in comparison with previous systems. The other main area was to determine the level of understanding of the BMIS by the users and the derived benefits. The survey method of research was adopted during this research. The research showed that the successful implementation of the adopted BMIS of the Youth Employment Agency as public institution was largely dependent on the processes adopted in the usage, the level of understanding of the system, the level at which it has been implemented and the benefits realized since its implementation. Additionally, the research also showed that, for effective implementation of the BMIS of YEA, there is the need for well trained and equipped users with tools and logistics to enable them proactively perform their functions in line with the vision and mission of the Youth Employment Agency. The population of the study is the entire 216 district officers and selected managers of the Youth Employment Agency. These people were identified as the direct users and mangers of the YEA BMIS. In collecting data, questionnaires were administered and interviews were conducted as well. Not all the expected population responded to the questionnaires. Subject The topic of the resource MSc.

Title A name given to the resource Development And Examining The Impact Of Electronic Document Management System On Organizational Performance: A Case Study of Vision fund Money Lending Limited Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Samuel Mensah Description An account of the resource Times are varying faster, with these changes, institutions are coming to terms with the reality that can no longer afford to stick with historic filing systems as their competitors embrace the future. Today’s world is filled with amazing technology, able to delivering information instantly with the push of the mouse. Within this environment, one may think that data bound to physical pieces of paper is a remnant of the past - instead, the opposite is true. Thus, real benefit will result not only from automating these processes but also re-engineering them to take advantage of the advance technology that is available. Electronic Document Management System support businesses handles documents through the lifecycle, from creation to destruction (Jones, 2012). Streamlining business processes and growing efficiency are fundamental concerns for just about any organization, no matter size or sector which struggles to reconcile the field of digital and physical data. Electronic Document Management solutions are targeted at combating these complaints using the simple understanding that a centralized repository improves information discovery and reuse of critical assets. As organizations attempt to keep costs down, improve process efficiency and institute compliance with several government legislation and industry rules (e.g. SOX, HIPAA, PIPEDA), digitizing these documents becomes an essential initial step This project addresses the principles of today’s document management systems and the current market trends and cover ways in which business like VisionFund Money Lending Limited can actually quantify the return on investment (ROI) in implementing an electronic document management systems. The broad objective of the present project was to design an Electronic Document Management System to be known as VisionFund Management System – VFMS. VFMS is an Electronic document management system that has the functionalities of enhancing productivity of employees by allowing them to securely share resources, help manage documents effectively, secure documents against misuse, and improve in-house collaboration. It will among other things provide storage, sharing, versioning, security, as well as searching, archiving and backup capabilities, that will help VisionFund reduce their overall document volumes while increasing the value of the knowledge assets. It will also eliminate the duplicate, outdated, and irrelevant documents to make way for improved access to an organization’s real intellectual capital and reusable assets Recommendations for more room for system development and its implications are also suggested Subject The topic of the resource MSc.

Title A name given to the resource Students’ Perceptions of Blended Learning in Health Training Institutions in Ghana: A Case Study of Ho Nursing Training College Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Samuel Asare Danquah Description An account of the resource Implementing blended/online learning comes with its benefits and challenges. The study looked into students’ perceptions of blended learning in a Health Training School in Ghana. Qualitative and quantitative analytical techniques were used to examine the perceptions of trainee at the Ho Nursing Training College. Two theoretical models were used in this research. These are the technology acceptance model which predicts the perceived usefulness of the system and the perceived ease of use and the Delone and McLean’s IS success model which seeks to measure dependent variables like the system quality, information quality, use, user satisfaction, individual impact and organizational impact. The findings suggest that, students’ perception of blended/ online learning is influenced by the use of the online platform for studying whiles using the traditional face-to-face learning as well. Majority of the students are of the perception that, blended/online learning is very effective and that it has helped in improving their academic performance. But then, lack of stable internet and personal computers are some of the reason why the students are unwilling to patronize online learning. It also delved into the benefits and challenges of implementing blended/online learning. Also, the factors to consider when deploying the system were looked into. The study adds to literature by contributing to knowledge on the implementation of blended/online learning. The research model offers an opportunity to examine how suitable existing conditions are for the implementation of blended/online learning. Subject The topic of the resource MSc.

As Telecoms faces new imperative to deliver some value to every amount that is invested into telecom operations and setup, most companies are looking for Managed Service providers that can help managed technological business risk, managed any uncertainty, enhance agility and even control cost while at the same time maintaining their core business objectives. (Hewlett-Packard Company, 2002). This study is to explore the level of influence that using Managed Services has on the operations of the Telecom Companies. The study focuses on Airtel Ghana as a case study, and uses cooperation of vendors (MSPs), their adherence to SLAs and cost savings as a means to measure the influence of managed services on the business operations of Mobile Telecommunication Companies in Ghana. Interview was used as the main tool to gather the required information from Airtel and staffs of their four Managed Services Partners (Mahindracomviva, IBM, CSG and Ericsson. The outcome of the data analysis reveal that from the perspective of Airtel respondents and their partners alike, the level of cooperation between MSPs in working together towards service delivery is generally good. However, the MSPs level of adherence to Service Level Agreements (SLAs) is low according to Airtel respondents although the MSPs claimed their adherence to SLA was high. Lastly, according to Airtel respondent there is really no cost savings in the operations from the use of Managed Services contrary to the general assertion that Managed Services reduce cost according to (Alexander and Young, 1996; Sheehan, 1993). The results however emphasized some benefits as sound technical support and expertise, better human resource management and opportunity to focus on core business.

Title A name given to the resource Assessing the Impact of Big: Data on the Growth of Smes Industry in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Prince Paa Kwesi Essandoh Description An account of the resource Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are non-subsidiary, independent firms which employ fewer than a given number of employees and these numbers differs from one country to the other. Notably, Small-and Medium-sized businesses (SMEs) often lack the resources to invest significantly on technology needed to leverage big data. Therefore SMEs can take advantage of cloud computing techniques to avail the advantages of big data without significant investments in technology and manpower. Big data have been regarded as a strategic approach for organizations to enhance their effectiveness through technology adoptions and implementation. This study seeks to find out how the concept of big data can impact on the growth of the SME sector in Ghana. The researcher employed a mixed methodology approach in undertaking this study. Both simple random and purposive sampling techniques would be used to select the two SME entrepreneurs who use big data for their operations; purposive sampling was used because the respondents might offer biased responses based on their position and expertise. The study found out that that perceived advantages, ease of use and compatibility of big data technologies have wide-scale impacts on SMEs’ current adoption level and future usage plan. However, interestingly, perceived costs of implementing big data revealed a more diverse picture. It was shown that big firms would not view costs as a major adoption barrier in the future, while most small businesses are still currently concerned about the implementation and maintenance costs. The study recommended that in the future this research should be examined in a few chosen or specific industries to test for generalisability, particularly among those with different business models Subject The topic of the resource Msc.

This research seeks to understand how users respond to new technology and how the responds (positive or negative) affects other stakeholders and themselves. According the recent studies by various authors and researchers, Electronic learning (eLearning) presents countless opportunities, not just found in academia but also all other industries. This is solely because the gradual evolvement of the human race from the agrarian era where the most beneficial thing to learn was agriculture in order to survive. This technology era presents countless opportunities, where one might not need to even see China through their entire lifetime, but may effectively learn to speak Chinese with the aid of technology. Technology presents the world with a lot of good and bad things, one of these things is the ability to learn without necessarily being in a classroom or a particular location (eLearning). In recent time this technology has grown to bring more comfort to people by giving more control over how they choose to learn. As a result, introducing another innovation where one is able to access learning material over a mobile communication network using a mobile device (m- learning).

Title A name given to the resource Evaluation of the Antecedent and Consequences Of E-Learning Adoption in Higher Educational Institutions. Evidence From Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Ophelia Boakye Safo Description An account of the resource The use of computer technology has become very useful in our educational institutions as compared to the traditional learning. Today university’s nowadays use e-learning modules to support their education systems. Yet still most researches do not consider multiple stakeholder perspective when dealing with topics on e-learning. Some studies only focus on a single stakeholder among the main categories of stakeholders thus learners, lecturers, administrators. In addition, some literatures also miss the multi factor of the adoption of e-learning which is the technological organisational and environmental. This study therefore discusses the antecedent and the consequences of the e-learning and uses the TOE framework to explore the approach from the multiple stakeholder perspective on the adoption. The study used quantitative approach for the survey which focused on two universities in the developing countries which have adopted e-learning with a total number 350 stakeholders (students, lecturers and administrators). Means and standard deviation, multiple regression and correlation were all used for the analysis of data. The study originality is the multi-stakeholder perspective with a multi-dimensional framework (Technology, Organisation, Environment and Nature of Course) approaches to the study of elearning adoption in a developing country. The research recommends that, the use of relatively user-friendly applications should be employed and there should also be the E-learning architecture to integrate the structures which would ensure limit in anxiety on the part of patrons.

Title A name given to the resource Information Privacy in Healthcare Institutions: A Case of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, Accra Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Nana Yaa Sarkodie-Adu Description An account of the resource The study was conducted to investigate information privacy in healthcare systems with a focus on Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, Accra. Notably, the study sought to establish the existing policies and practices regarding information privacy, identify the threats to information privacy and find out the adequacy of information privacy systems in the Hospital. The study adopted a descriptive research design; sampling 150 staff and 70 patients using stratified random sampling method. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analysed using frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviation. The study found that the Hospital has policies and systems for regulating the collection and access to medical records of patients to ensure privacy of such information. The major threats to information privacy were unintentional actions or negligence by staff and accidental access upon a patient’s records out of curiosity or for their own purpose. Finally, the existing information privacy systems within the Hospital was moderately adequate. The most adequate of the existing principles were data control, security, transparency, and anonymity and pseudonymity. The study concludes that in spite of the adequacy of information privacy measures, the privacy of medical records is seriously threatened if adequate security measures are not established to address the security lapses. It is recommended that the Hospital put in place adequate security measures to deal with accidental exposure of medical records of patients to outsiders. Also, continuous training on information security and privacy for all staff of the Hospital is strongly recommended. Subject The topic of the resource MSc.
