Thirty-one graduates from Kiambu National Polytechnic are set to begin employment in Germany after completing a specialised labour mobility programme, in what the government says is a pilot project that will be replicated in other Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions across the country.
The graduates, comprising 20 hospitality trainees under the DEHOGA programme and 11 landscaping trainees, received certificates on Friday after completing technical training, German language classes and workplace-readiness courses aligned with the needs of employers in Bavaria, Germany.
The programme is a partnership between Kiambu National Polytechnic, the German Embassy, GIZ, the State Department for TVET and the State Department for Diaspora Affairs.
