NYA-YOP is the operational system that runs the National Youth Authority's programmes end to end — application, verification, training, field delivery, disbursement and placement — and publishes trustworthy, real-time data into the National Youth Tracker. It is where the Tracker's data comes from.
One common lifecycle for every NYA programme, field operations that work offline at district level, disbursement control tied to verified attendance, and outcome evidence a Board can defend — connected to the systems Ghana already has rather than rebuilding them.
Application, verification, selection, training, placement, outcome — the same workflow for NAP, SkillsConnekt, NYVP, Youth Innovate and the YLSTIs, with a wizard to launch the next programme.
Self-asserted, officer-attested, document-checked, NIA-verified. The tier decides what a record can be used for; a young person without a Ghana Card becomes a case, not a rejection.
One officer, one phone, offline. Verification, attendance, inspections and case notes sync when the signal returns; conflicts are resolved on screen, never silently overwritten.
An attendance gate, an exception queue, maker–checker–approver with separation of duties, a payment file per beneficiary, reconciliation to GIFMIS, and recovery. The module that pays for the platform.
A GLMIS-fed employer surface: shortlist programme completers against a real vacancy, then have the employer or master craftsperson confirm the placement and its retention at 3, 6 and 12 months.
Levels A to D on every outcome — self-reported, officer-verified, third-party confirmed, system-linked. Headline figures count C and D only, which is why an NYA-YOP number can be defended before Parliament.
The north star: the share of young people who started a programme and, a year after completion, are provably still working, trading, studying or serving — with the Outcome Verification Rate published beside it.
A support request in YouthXplore becomes a case; referrals carry a consent gate; safeguarding lives in a restricted tier; grievances against decisions run on a 48-hour SLA.
Duplicates are adjudicated by a person and a second approver, never auto-merged; every merge is reversible and audited; timeliness and completeness score every centre.
YouthXplore for applications, GLMIS for vacancies, NIA for identity, CTVET for credentials, OMCP for courses, GIFMIS for money and the Youth Tracker for reporting — one event stream, nothing rebuilt.
Two-factor sign-in by role, password resets that never show a password to an administrator, granular permissions, and a tamper-evident audit log with an export that demands a reason.
NYA staff, a training centre, an employer, a funding partner and the young person in YouthXplore each see the same journey from their own side — and only what their role permits.
Who is missing and where, by region, sex, disability and urban/rural; an executive overview with the Ghana map that drills from a national figure to one district, one cohort and one person.
The demo follows exactly this path — start in the field, not on the dashboard.
The application lands in NYA-YOP with nothing re-typed. Verification and selection are scored, explained and approved by people, with a conflict-of-interest declaration on record.
A district officer confirms the person on a phone against a Ghana Card check, and takes attendance at the centre or workplace. It syncs when the signal returns.
Attendance gates the allowance. Exceptions are queued, three different people sign, a payment file goes to the channel, and everything reconciles to GIFMIS.
An employer or master craftsperson confirms placement and retention; follow-ups at 3, 6 and 12 months feed the Verified Conversion Rate — and the Youth Tracker, the same day.
Version 3 of the Master Proposal consolidates the strategy, the product and screen specification, the data, technology and compliance design, the delivery plan, the API and security specification and the case. The decision it asks for is deliberately small, with a gate that can fail. Read the proposal online →
Register and verification ladder, offline attendance, the eligibility gate, maker–checker, one real payment cycle and a district dashboard. Nothing else. If it does not beat the paper baseline measurably, stop.
The problem, the proposal, how it works, the north star and the decision requested — for the Chief Executive's office.
