The Ghana Military Academy is the military academy of the Ghana Armed Forces. It offers basic military training to officer cadets from the Ghana Army, Ghana Navy and the Ghana Air Force. The academy is based in Teshie in the Greater Accra Region.
Entrance into the Ghana Military Academy is through a rigorous selection process. Eligible applicants must be Ghanaian citizens, medically fit, and possess at least a degree. The selection process involves an online application, Basic Fitness Test (BFT), Officer Leadership Test (OLT), written examination, medical screening, and interviews with senior military officers. Successful candidates undergo a comprehensive training program, lasting 15-24 months for Regular Cadets or 6-8 months for Short Service Commission, leading to their commissioning as officers in the Ghana Armed Forces. Most Ghanaian officers, as well as other men and women from overseas, are trained at the academy.
