Pwani University TVET College (PU-TVET) was established as a Directorate of TVET by the Technical and Vocational Education and Training Authority (TVETA) in April 2020. The College is located in Kilifi at Pwani University Main Campus, off the Mombasa-Malindi highway.

PU-TVET offers fifty-six (56) programs for Certificate (Level 5) and Diploma (Level 6) training in Agricultural Sciences, Applied Sciences, Health Sciences, Business and Liberal Studies. Currently, more than 1000 trainees are enrolled across twenty-six (26) programs for Competency Based Training (CBET) which is externally regulated by the Curriculum Development, Assessment and Certification Council of Kenya (TVET-CDACC). This year PU-TVET is proud to graduate 218 trained technicians in various fields ready for industrial engagement. We appreciate FIPS-Africa, WWF, the IGNITE Program, SIFA-ISACA Kenya Chapter, the GIZ and the MPESA foundation for partnering with us to create this Dynamic, Creative and Responsive Technical Institution in Kenya.

Skills Development: PU-TVET has established a Skills Development farm for hands-on training for trainees and the community in Agriculture. Further, the weekly Community outreach program trainees engage the community to learn while offering services in Agriculture, Health and other thematic areas. PU-TVET has partnered with Fumbini Secondary School, Kilifi County Hospital and Kilifi Children Office for practical skills while offering services in counselling and guidance. The Kilifi Law Courts, and the Mitigation offices have also provided opportunities for our trainees to engage in criminal justice management while providing services to the community. The ICT team has enrolled several schools in Kilifi township to establish School Management Information Systems (SMIS) routinely managed by trainees. To ice the cake, the Directorate holds a Quartely Skills week to showcase skills and innovations for public consumption.

Partnerships: We appreciate FIPS-Africa, WWF, the IGNITE Program, SIFA-ISACA Kenya Chapter, the GIZ and the MPESA foundation and all the industry players in Kilifi for partnering with us to create this Dynamic, Creative and Responsive Technical Training Institution in Kenya. 

At the Technical and Vocational Education and Training Centre (TVET), our mission is to empower individuals with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in today's dynamic workforce. We are committed to providing high-quality training and educational opportunities that align with industry needs. Together, we can build a brighter future through technical and vocational education.
