This announcement comes weeks after KUCCPS opened applications for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programmes across various institutions for the September 2025 academic year.

In early August, the placement service invited Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) graduates from 2000 to 2024 to apply for TVET courses.

The application period for those programmes ran from August 8 to August 22, and submissions were made through the same online portal.

To enhance accessibility and encourage more involvement in technical education, KUCCPS implemented a significant fee reduction, cutting application costs for TVET programmes from Ksh 1,500 to Ksh 500.

The earlier announcement outlined clear entry requirements for different programme levels: diploma courses required a minimum grade of C- in KCSE, while craft certificate programmes required at least a D grade.

Artisan certificate courses had the most flexible entry requirement of a minimum E grade.

KUCCPS has established multiple support channels for students requiring assistance during the application process. Candidates can visit nearby TVET institutions or Huduma Centres for guidance, contact the placement service directly through their helplines, or access additional resources on the official KUCCPS website.
