The seminary instituted academic awards in honour of each of the four personalities.

The awards are Best Student Award for Systematic Theology, Best Student Award for Church and Society, Best Student in Ecumenical and Social Relations and Best Female Student Award respectively.

In all, 224 students graduated from the seminary with Master of Theology, Master of Divinity, Master of Arts in Ministry, Bachelor of Theology, Diploma in Theology, and Certificate in Ministry.

The President of the seminary, Rev. Professor Joseph Obiri Yeboah Mante, in an address, said the seminary was in the process of putting up a new academic block with lecture halls, auditorium, faculty/staff offices and senate room.

The block will also have a business centre which will host seminary bookshop, salon, barbering shop, among others.
