About three hundred (300) trainers have been recruited by the Public Service Commission (PSC) and deployed to various TVET institutions within the
Country.
However, some of the trainers have no pedagogical training, which is a requisite qualification for any trainer to be registered by TVET Authority as per section 23 of the TVET Act and the Trainers Qualification Framework Standard.
It is important to note that starting January 2021, TVET Authority has granted a grace period of two (2) years for those without pedagogy to acquire the same.
In line with this, the Ministry has forwarded a list of all the trainers without pedagogy to Kenya Technical Trainers College (KTTC) for purposes of planning regarding the scheduling of cohorts for training on pedagogy.
The first cohort of trainers is expected to start training as from 4th February 2021. Given the above, all trainers without training in pedagogy are requested to visit the KTTC website (www.kttc.ac.ke), download the admission form, fill it and send to the Chief Principal KTTC, P.O. Box 44600-00100 NAIROBI on or before 15th January 2021.
The trainers are advised to attach certified hard copies of their academic and professional certificates as well as their transcripts. The cost of training shall be met by individual trainers. To utilize the grace period granted by TVET, Authority admission will be based on first come first served.
You are required to bring the contents of this letter to the attention of the concerned trainers for their necessary action. Additionally, you are directed to organize your institution’s programmes to afford the concerned trainers time to attend the training.
