Top Model Ghana, (retroactively TMG) was a weekly one-hour TV Reality Series produced by 702 Productions, Ltd., and was aired on GTV.

Auditions were held all through the state of Ghana where Ghanaians were called for casting. Applicants were required to be from 18 to 24 years old at the time of application and at least 5'7" in height, to be eligible to meet the character criteria as set by Producer.

For 8 weeks, the 13 finalists lived in a house equipped with cameras and microphones. They were also evaluated by a panel of judges on both their filmed interactions and performance in challenges. These judges, including fashion industry experts, agency representatives, photographers and a weekly guest judge (to judge in his or her areas of expertise) eliminated one contestant each week until a winner emerged.

Over a period of eight weeks, the selected finalists went through an intensive modeling school and life skill training. They were trained by international and local modeling experts, who taught them about Fashion, Runway Skills, Physical Fitness, Life Skills, Professional Photo Shoot, Publicity Skills and Product Sales Acumen. Contestants then faced a weekly test to determine who was to be eliminated.

Each episode targeted a particular life skill and modeling requirement. Contestant's knowledge and familiarity with subject matter were tested in a challenge. Aspiring models were evaluated based on their performance in the challenges.
