KUCCPS Opens Portal for KMTC and TVET Applications for KCSE 2024 Students.
Form four leavers who sat their Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination in 2024 can now apply for placement to KMTC and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) colleges of their choice.
This follows the opening of the application portal today by the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS).
The Placement service has for the first time adopted a phased application process, starting with Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) and the TVET colleges to allow students enrolling for the March intake to apply on time.
The portal will remain open for 21 days, to be closed on 14th February 2025, “Universities and Teacher Training Colleges (TTCs) normally have their intakes later in the year while KMTC and TVETs admit theirs in January, March and May, hence the need to have a phased application process to enable students transition to colleges promptly”, says KUCCPS CEO Dr. Agnes Mercy Wahome.
Form Four leavers who sat the KCSE examination from the year 2000 to 2024 are eligible to apply for the slots. Applications for degree programmes and TTCs will follow thereafter at dates that will be announced.
Candidates who will re-sit their KCSE examination this year will have an opportunity to apply for KMTC and TVET programmes, using their improved grades, for the September intake.
Dr. Wahome has noted a tremendous increase in training opportunities both in TVET institutions and KMTC. For instance, KMTC has availed opportunities in 90 campuses this year, compared to 87 last year.
Three new KMTC campuses were opened recently in Kerio Valley, Marimanti and Marsabit. KMTC has also increased the number of campuses offering popular courses such as Diploma in Kenya Registered Community Health Nursing (49 campuses), Diploma in Clinical Medicine and Surgery (30 campuses), Certificate in Community Health Assistant (47 campuses) and Certificate in Health Records and Information Technology (36 campuses).
Similarly, over 260 TVET institutions including university TVET institutes, national polytechnics and other TVET institutions under the Ministry of Education as well as TVETs under other line ministries are available for application.
“We encourage applicants to select TVET institutions and KMTC campuses within their localities as this will make it cheaper for them to operate from their homes,” said Dr. Wahome.
Noting that KMTC recently increased opportunities in Community Health programmes and introduced Diploma in Health Insurance Management to provide skilled workers for the Universal Health Care programme, and Diploma in Mortuary Science to provide professionally trained morticians, she encouraged students to apply for the courses.
Detailed application guidelines, institutions, available programmes and their requirements are available on the KUCCPS portal students.kuccps.net
Applications can only be done through the portal and applicants are advised to be vigilant to avoid becoming victims of online fraudsters.
KUCCPS officers will offer support to roll out a national exercise to guide students and support applicants in designated colleges in all the 47 counties, including Huduma Centres.
