The State Department for Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) has started the process of breaking down the TVET curriculum into small specializations which will be assessed and accredited within three months.

According to TVETs Principal Secretary, Dr Esther Muoria, breaking down the Competency-Based Education and Training (CBET) into short modules will allow trainees to transition to the job market in a shorter period of time.

It is also aimed at reducing the cost and the duration of time taken in training. "We are shifting from a situation where our young people will be in an institution, training for a whole year.

We are doing this so that we give them an opportunity to transit to the world of work," stated Dr Muoria.
