Testimonials

Hassan Rashid

Former Student, Class of 2024
“I had very little computer knowledge before joining the ICT course at our VTC. The hands-on training, especially in Microsoft Office and networking, gave me the confidence to apply for jobs. I am now working as an ICT assistant at a local firm, and I owe it all to the supportive instructors and practical learning environment.”

Graduates of this course will be awarded a nationally recognized certificate upon successful completion, examined by either NITA (Grade III-I) or KNEC (Artisan/Craft level), depending on the selected track.
