Do Not Own A Certificate Of Doom. Here Is a Full List of Universities, Polytechnics and Other Educational Institutions Legally Authorized To Operate in Kenya
All jokes aside, the fact that Nairobi Aviation College has been operating for 16 years without accreditation and no one even batted an eyelid till now is a bit scary and sad .
Especially for the students and parents who have invested a colossal amount of money to educate their children only to find out that the college they sent their kids to is not even accredited.
I honestly can understand why they felt angry and redirected their rage though wrongly to the Nation Media Group. There is nothing worse than finding out that the place where you put all your money, sweat and tears is fake. It’s devastating to say the least.
I do not condone what they did, their anger should have been towards the college who hoodwinked them and not the person, who informed them that they had been duped, as they say, do not kill the messenger.
Anyhow, to avoid another case of wasted years and money, here is a list Universities legally allowed to Operate in the country by the Commission for University and Polytechnics and Other Educational Institutions allowed to operate by the Technical and Vocational Education and Training Authority .
