It is commendable that Technical Vocational Education and Training has taken shape across all regions as a front runner in imparting the requisite skills to the young people of this nation.
I had an opportunity to visit the Mawego National Polytechnic for a spot check on CBET assement for July series.I applaud the efforts put in place to have seamless assessment for credible results.
The income generating activities in the National Polytechnic and prudent management of funds are a mark of the excellence by the institution.I encouraged the management and trainers to think without the box to explore more areas that will have more positive impact for Mawego National Polytechnic.
Dual TVET is steadily gaining momentum in Kenya!
I had the pleasure of hosting representatives from the Private Sector Taskforce and GIZ, who have been instrumental in supporting the Ministry's implementation of Dual Training.
The Taskforce Chair provided a comprehensive update on the progress of industry mapping for training slots across various sectors. This is a crucial step towards enhancing industry participation in skills training.
Additionally, I received a copy of the Draft Policy on the Implementation of Dual TVET in Kenya. This policy spearheaded by the State Department is the culmination of over 2.5 years of extensive consultations and collaboration among TVET stakeholders, outlining a clear framework for partnership between technical training institutions and industries in skilling our youth.
A key focus of both the Taskforce report and the Dual TVET policy is the imperative to incentivize industry for greater involvement in skills training initiatives, including clear proposals on how this can be achieved.
By fostering stronger partnerships between academia and industry, we are not only equipping our youth with the relevant skills for the job market but also driving economic growth and innovation.
