Industrial training is mandatory and overseen by KNEC, CDACC, and NITA, each with specific requirements that the office ensures are fully met.

Message from HOD

Welcome to the Industrial Liaison Office. Our mission is to bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world industry practice..

Before trainees embark on industrial training or attachment, we ensure they are fully prepared by briefing them on regulatory requirements and industry expectations, issuing insurance covers to protect against personal injuries or accidents, and providing open letters of introduction to industries, in addition to trainees’ own applications, to secure placement opportunities.

Once trainees are placed, the office coordinates industrial visits for dual trainees and conducts assessments for all trainees on attachment. These evaluations are carried out by internal assessors in collaboration with industry supervisors through the Industrial Liaison Officer. Our goal is to enhance trainee competence, professionalism, and employability while fostering strong industry partnerships..

Mr. Jackson Kerabai • Head of Industrial Liaison
