The informal sector plays a very significant role in the economy of many developed and developing countries across the globe. Hence many African countries have, as part of their national development agenda, made conscious efforts aimed at training their nationals, who were unable to pursue formal sector employment through higher education, for the informal sector trade. Ghana has done this for some decades now but not at a success that it wants. Using descriptive statistics, this paper seeks to uncover the pitfalls in the implementation of skills training programs conducted by the district assemblies of Ghana and subsequently offer solutions to the pitfalls. To harness the needed information, questionnaire and interview were employed in gathering data from the subjects. The paper has succeeded to identify 20 pitfalls categorized as financial, technical and other factors. A model has also been suggested for the combat of these pitfalls.
