The Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) has released academic transcripts for students who completed their June–July 2025 qualifying exams.

In a statement on Thursday, September 18, the institution said it dispatched 13,000 transcripts to its campuses on Wednesday, September 17.

KMTC also noted that thousands of requests continue to come from recruitment agencies seeking verification of academic documents.

"Our reforms are designed to ensure graduates do not miss opportunities. With automation, students can now verify transcripts online, and with decentralization, they can collect documents at their campuses three weeks after completing exams," KMTC CEO Kelly Oluoch said.

Oluoch added that the college has scaled up its Transcript Mashinani initiative, issuing transcripts to graduates on the spot during national events.

He noted that transcripts are now processed within just one day once requirements are met, and always within the 10 days outlined in the Citizens’ Service Delivery Charter.

"These measures ensure our graduates remain competitive in the job market," Oluoch added.

"If you haven’t secured a slot for the September 2025 intake, consider applying for our Higher Diploma, Upgrading Diploma, or Short Courses. We can't wait to welcome you home," the statement read.

Applications are being processed through the official KMTC admissions portal, https://admissions.kmtc.ac.ke/login.

"Pharmacy is one of the most marketable and rewarding careers today, offering diverse local and international opportunities.

"Graduates work in top pharmaceutical companies, hospitals, research institutions, regulatory bodies, and even NGOs," the institution said.

KMTC also stressed the vital role pharmacy technicians play in the healthcare system, from dispensing medication and guiding patients to managing administrative responsibilities.

"Pharmacy technicians play a key role in dispensing medication, offering patient guidance, and handling administrative tasks in pharmaceutical practice.

"Pharmacists also contribute to public health programs, clinical trials, health policy, insurance, and academic research, making it a dynamic and future-proof profession," the institution added.
