Access to Polytechnic Education and Distance Learning in Ghana: The Enrollment Factor at Takoradi PolytechnicKeywords: Access , polytechnic education and enrollment Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the enrollment factor at the polytechnics in Ghana. Secondary data was obtained from the admissions office of Takoradi polytechnic. Frequencies were used to analyze the data. The finding showed that a lot of the polytechnic applicants do not get access to polytechnic institutions due to physical space limitation. The denial of these qualified applicant access to pursue degrees of their choices contribute to both human underdevelopment and country underdevelopment. The study suggests distance learning centers at the district levels in Ghana as alternative mode to increase enrollment at the polytechnics and contribute immensely to the human resource development of Ghana.
