The Ministry of Labour and Social Protection has revealed that it is in the process of restructuring the adult education curriculum in the country.

In a statement on Wednesday, July 16, the Labour Cabinet Secretary, Alfred Mutua, said that the revision of the curriculum, to align with the Competency-Based Education (CBE), aims to ensure that students in these schools are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge required in today's job market.

The decision was made after the CS had an engagement with officials from the Directorate of Adult Learning and Education, which falls under Mutua's department, to deliberate on how to elevate the effectiveness of adult learning institutions in the country.

Currently, according to the ministry, over 124,000 adult learners are enrolled in various education centres across the country.
