Kenya is shifting its training focus with a new dual training curriculum that prioritizes hands-on, workplace experience for 75 per cent of learning, aiming to bridge a significant skills gap.

• Over 60 private sector companies partnered in developing the curriculum and co-funded apprenticeships.
• The initiative was launched by Principal Secretary Esther Muoria and Principal Secretary Shadrack Mwadime, adapting a Swiss model.
• A pilot program has already resulted in employability rates of approximately 80 per cent for graduates.
