About the Dual TVET Academy

The Dual TVET Academy is a Capacity-building hub for TVET institutions in Kenya that are committed to implementing dual training programs. Our mission is to equip TVET institutions with the tools, knowledge, and resources needed to deliver inclusive, labour market-relevant training programs for young women and men across Kenya.

Through the Academy, we aim to:
– Strengthen the capacity of TVET institutions to design and deliver dual training programs.
– Foster collaboration between TVET institutions, industry partners, and government stakeholders.
– Promote the integration of dual training into the Kenyan TVET system.

Our Support

The Dual TVET Academy is made possible through the generous support of our partners:

  • Financed by the Ministry for Foreign Affairs (MFA) of Finland and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
  • Implemented by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH.

This project is embedded within the German development cooperation program, “Sustainable Economic Development – Promoting Youth Employment and Vocational Training in Kenya,” and the Finnish development cooperation program for Kenya. It aligns with Kenya’s national strategies, including the Kenya Vision 2030 and the TVET Blueprint, to create a skilled and competitive workforce.

Our Objective

The primary objective of the Dual TVET Academy is to support the integration of  inclusive and labour market-relevant dual TVET programs into the Kenyan TVET system. By doing so, we aim to empower young women and men with the skills and opportunities they need to secure meaningful employment and contribute to Kenya’s economic growth.

 

What is Dual TVET?

Dual TVET (Technical and Vocational Education and Training) is an innovative approach to skills development that combines theoretical learning in the classroom with practical, on-the-job training in the workplace. This model ensures that learners gain not only the knowledge but also the hands-on experience needed to thrive in the labour market. By bridging the gap between education and industry, Dual TVET creates a skilled workforce that meets the demands of today’s dynamic economy.

Why Dual TVET?

  • Industry-Relevant Skills: Dual training ensures that learners acquire skills that are directly aligned with industry needs.
  • Enhanced Employability: Graduates of dual training programs are better prepared for the workforce, increasing their chances of securing jobs.
  • Collaboration Between Education and Industry: Dual TVET fosters strong partnerships between TVET institutions and industry players, ensuring that training programs remain relevant and up-to-date.
