Building Institutional Capacity on Development Projects Since 2013
Trust Training Limited is a leading professional services provider, specializing in Capacity Building and Consulting services in Ghana. Over the last decade, we have developed a deep understanding of Development Projects, leveraging this understanding to deliver capacity building workshops for public sector institutions.
We commenced business operations in 2013, armed with the passion to set a higher standard of excellence in the provision of bespoke Capacity Building and Consulting Services.

This has been made possible through our core team of dedicated permanent staff and a wide and diverse associate pool of over 100 Training Consultants who are seasoned experts scattered across five continents of the globe, some of whom have successfully executed capacity building assignments on behalf of government institutions and development agencies.
Our Vision
Our Vision is to become the most trusted brand in capacity building and consulting services in Ghana and West Africa, consistently adding value to the work of government agencies and international development agency-funded project interventions.
