ACADEMIC COURSES

The aspiration of the college is to inspire the trainees with skills for the industry. This cuts across various sectors including:

  • Engineering
  • Computing and Informatics
  • Institutional Management
  • Agriculture and Environmental Studies

The college offers various courses in different departments which include:

  • Building
  • Clothing and Garment Making
  • Hairdressing and Beauty Therapy (Cosmetology)
  • Hospitality (Food Production, Sales and Service)
  • Electrical
  • Automotive
  • Agriculture
  • Computer and Informatics

The above courses are offered at different levels which include:

  • Diploma, Craft and Artisan (Examined by KNEC)
  • Level 3, 4, 5 and 6 (Assessed by TVET CDACC)

From September 2023, the college fully adopted CBET Training which focuses on skills and competencies.

To strengthen the training, the institution has encouraged the duo-training mode where the trainees learn in the college and in the industry. In this model, they take some sessions in the college classrooms and others at the areas of practice. This is anchored by a Memorandum of Understanding (M.o.U.) with industry players.

Currently, we have engaged local industry partners at Siakago which include:
