By Yawa Osebreh, class of 2006
On Thursday May 22, 2003, Ashesi’s class of 2006, led by Professor S.E. Anku, paid a pioneering visit to the premises of Quality Insurance Company (QIC) located in Adabraka. The group was met on arrival by five of the company’s managers, including Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Frank Odoom. This group of managers fielded questions from Ashesi students for over three hours answering each query in detail.
The CEO of QIC, Dr. Frank Odoom, in his closing remarks, thanked the class of 2006 for paying a visit to his company. He considered it an honor that his company was the first that the class had visited. He encouraged the class to maintain its high level of curiosity and take full advantage of all that Ashesi has to offer. In a response to a suggestion made by Professor Anku that QIC take on some students on internships, Dr. Odoom spoke of the possibility of taking on two or three students during vacation periods. After Dr. Odoom’s remarks, one of the members of the class of 2006 gave a vote of thanks to the management of QIC for allowing the class to visit the company.
