Members of Parliament are calling for significant reforms in Kenya's health training standards within colleges and universities. This comes after a report by the Kenya Health Professionals Oversight Authority (KHPOA) revealed alarming gaps in some medical training institutions.

• Approximately 8 percent of 152 surveyed medical training institutions for the 2024/2025 and 2025/2026 financial years were operating without proper registration and licensing.
• Jackson Kioko, CEO of KHPOA, highlighted issues including inadequate faculty, lack of clinical attachments, and unregistered institutions, posing risks to patient safety and the workforce.
• The Association of Medical Training Institutions of Kenya (AMTI–K) petitioned Parliament over alleged discriminatory practices and inconsistent regulation, leading MPs like Seme MP James Nyikal and Tinderet MP Julius Melly to advocate for harmonized standards and clearer regulatory mandates.
