Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>13,439 slots targetting diploma teacher training courses are up for grabs after Education CS Ezekiel Machogu on Saturday launched the exercise.<\/p>\n

The placement will see applicants enrolled in 32 public teacher training centres across the country.<\/p>\n

Speaking at Kangaru school in Embu County on Saturday, CS Machogu said that applicants must have attained a minimum mean grade of C (plain) in the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations.<\/p>\n

“The minimum requirement is a mean grade of C (plain) in the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination. There are no additional subject requirements,” Machogu announced as he presided over an education and career guidance day at the institution.<\/p>\n

According to the Ministry of Education, successful applicants will be enrolled in Diploma in Primary Teacher Education (DPTE) and Diploma in Early Childhood Teacher Education (DECTE) courses.<\/p>\n

The available admission slots for the DPTE programme are 11,358, while the DECTE course has 2,081.<\/p>\n

In a statement to newsrooms, Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) CEO Alice Wahome lauded the move, saying it will serve as an amazing opportunity for all qualified KCSE holders.<\/p>\n

“This opportunity is for qualified KCSE certificate holders including non-Kenyan citizens who sat the exam in 2022 or earlier until the year 2000,” Wahome said.<\/p>\n

The placement of trainees will be handled by KUCCPS, which has opened its online portal for the application.<\/p>\n

According to Wahome, the portal will remain open until July 28, 2023.<\/p>\n
