The GTTI in Gambia started functioning in 1983 with the offering of craft level programmes in a selection of technical and commercial disciplines and qualifications awarded by the Royal Society of Arts (RSA), City and Guilds of London Institute (CGLI), & Pitman Training UK.
Since 1983, the educational institute has broadened its curriculum from craft level provision to full technological certificates; from Pitman and RSA programmes to AAT, ABE and ACCA programmes in Business Studies; from manual short-hand to computerized stenography; from Further Education Teacher training to Higher Teacher training and during the last several years an HND in Building Construction Management taught in conjunction with the University of the Gambia and South Bank University in the UK.
Nowadays, the GTTI is engaged in training of human resources and personnel in the areas of engineering, construction, commerce, information technology and education/training in technology for teachers.
