Teachers and qualified Non-Teaching Staff of the Ghana Education Service (GES) who are yet to receive their Laptop Computers under the government’s One Teacher – One Laptop Initiative are to generate their collection code by dialling  *790*555#.

A statement by the manufacturing firm, in Accra on Wednesday also urges all such teachers and non-teaching staff to contact ICT Coordinators in their respective Regions or Districts for assistance to enable them to receive their Laptops.

The statement explains that even though almost 96 per cent of all beneficiary teaching and non-teaching staff of GES have taken delivery of their Laptops, the company is stepping up its efforts to ensure all outstanding beneficiaries in all parts of the country take advantage of the initiative as it brings the nationwide distribution to closure.

The company indicated that creating the collection shortcode is for audit purposes and to ensure that only eligible teaching and non-teaching staff are served.
