Having been started in the early 1990s, the Food and Beverage department has been growing steadily. The department offers its courses at three levels i.e. Diploma, Craft Certificate and the recently introduced Artisan level that caters for students who had previously been left out as they did not qualify for the other levels. CBET courses at Levels 6, 5, 4 and 3 are being offered under the new curriculum and examined by CDACC.
We are proud of our past graduates from different levels who have taken up various positions in the catering and hospitality industry. Some are working in hotels and restaurants as chefs, waiters, supervisors and managers. Others are employed in the catering departments of schools, hospitals and colleges. After qualifying in the diploma course students are eligible to join the Kenya Technical Training Teachers College, where they graduate and join the teaching profession.
In the department entrepreneurship education is a mandatory subject thus all our students are usually well-trained and prepared for self-employment. We also encourage our students to further their training from one level to another as a qualification in one level makes a student eligible to join the next. Our diploma graduates also join the universities that offer degrees in technical courses. With an ultra-modern training facility, we promise to continue offering quality training to our students. As we look forward to scaling greater heights in the future, the sky is the limit for the Food and Beverage Department
