You can find the offices for this organization at E960 13th Ln, Accra.
Who We Are
Enquiry Agency was established in the year 2013. They started with interaction sessions as their core activity. In 2016, they launched a career fair, at the British Council, with over 80 youngsters in attendance across the various senior high schools and tertiary institutions in Accra. Within that same year, their job shadow programs took on a giant leap, with over five students granted an opportunity to shadow surgeons and I.T. professionals.
However, we did realize the disconnection between our Ghanaian education system and the world of work. The youth often have no practical skills outside the education system, and young entrepreneurs do not know what networking is or how to network. Volunteering, an integral part of our activity, has had little or no attention from the youth in Ghana and is often considered “free labour”.
The Enquiry Agency team has become the leading voice in the past four years, promoting volunteerism and voluntourism via our inter Africa and inter-regional volunteer placements for Ghanaians and foreigners.
Undoubtedly, our efforts, dedication, vision and mission have attracted politicians, international businessmen and women, and resource persons such as Ambassador Kabral Blay-Amihere, Hon. Zanetor Agyemany Rawlings,(M.P.; Klottey Korle) Dr. Opoku Ware Ampomah (Director of Reconstructive Surgery and Burns Unit, Korle Bu Teaching Hospital) Mr. Laing (Burn and Plastic Surgeon, Korle Bu Accra, Ghana), Former Minister of Information; Hon Fritz Baffuor, The Italian Business Association Ghana, Obaapa Development Foundation, Ace-It foundation, Uniq FM, Panafrican Television, Ghana, Gogurt Yoghurt and many more.
Today, with a team of 6 passionate young men and women, Enquiry Agency has become a networking hub for professionals, entrepreneurs and students, across the nation, via our monthly workshops, annual career fairs, volunteer placements, business clinics, job shadows and interactive sessions.
