An Historic First!
ACCRA, GHANA, W. AFRICA—It was a glorious day. On Dec. 14, 2019, Heritage Christian College graduated its first class of degree recipients. Armed with diplomas from this enterprising institution, these individuals enter the business world with entrepreneurial mindsets. The occasion marks more than a rite of passage for some fortunate Ghanaian students. It marks a major milestone for the institution itself. Heritage Christian College was chartered for this very ideal—to put qualified men and women into service of their community, their homeland, and their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The college’s first graduation class numbers 30 degree recipients. Meanwhile, the college’s sister organization, Heritage Bible Institute, commissioned 37 men and women as graduates, sending them out into the world to spread the gospel. We report on this grand occasion.

About HCC
Our story starts with Heritage Christian College (HCC), a linchpin institution in its geopolitical region, Ghana, West Africa. HCC is a cost-efficient, qualified, forward-looking institution that tangibly contributes to the quality of life through student education, community development, and sustainability for West Africa on the whole.
The roots of the institution are in the Bible College that predates the establishment of the college itself by nearly four decades. The Bible College continues as a part of HCC, but the overall institution now offers a considerably broader range of disciplines and degrees.
Its vision is to “become the flagship Christian university in Africa for the purpose of advancing the kingdom of Christ and national development.”
As a Christian institution of higher learning, HCC aims at “promoting transformative education through active engagement in scholarship, professionalism, and creative pursuits in entrepreneurship.”
