My daughter scored D-, She is really interested with this course,,can she pursue the course with that Grade? Thank you
Hi, the minimum requirement to sit for the final TVET CDACC exam is a D plain.
With D- she won’t be able to sit for that exam. But our institution will also give her a certificate for course completion that she can use to apl work.
Why this course does not have license in Kenya?? Like other courses kama nursing
Caregiver course is not under the Nursing Council of Kenya. They do not offer it. But it is needed by industry. So every school creates their own curriculum.

Hi, give us a call or text on 0708177909 for more information.
How many units are covered under POTT …
Is it a KNEC exam or a TVET CDACC exam ….
Hi, You will do a TVET CDACC exam after completing your studies. The curriculum has 16 units though we have added a few more that we deemed necessary to make our students more capable and confident.
Do certificate students get lincenses and are there job vacancies for them or is it a must one to advance to the diploma position
Once you do the TVET CDACC exams and get the certificate you’re ready to hit the job market. You can advance later if you want to increase your job responsibilities… But certificate is more marketable because they can do the job and won’t ask for a lot of money.
When is the next intake after match and do you have any other branches or just in Githunguri?
