KUCCPS : Good News To TTC teacher trainees As HELB Is Set To Offer Them Loans.
Trainee teachers in Teacher Training Colleges (TTCs) for the first time, are set to enjoy students loans from Higher Education Loans Board (Helb) this year.
The Kenya University and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) has announced that 35 teacher training colleges listed will benefit from the kitty.
The ministry of education has allowed KUCCPS for the first time to place students to TTCs.
The ministry of education has been responsible for recruiting students for admission to the public primary TTCs until this year when the ministry has given KUCCPS the mandate to carry of the exercise.
With a lot of confidence, Ministry of Education Director General Elyas Abdi has said that KUCCPS is going to deliver on this newly assigned task.
In a sensitization workshop in Thogoto TTC, in January this year, principals and their deans of curriculum were educated on the KUCCPs mandate, how to navigate the KUCCPS portals, validation of courses and placement processes.
They were also shown how to upload programmes and capacities on the KUCCPS database, and sensitised on application processing and inter-institutional transfers.
KUCCPS Chief Executive Mercy Wahome said the placement agency had developed a watertight automated system for admission that will ensure all legible applicants are placed.
Dr Wahome spelt out the roadmap for the admissions activity for the second batch of students who will join the institution to undergo training under the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC).
KUCCPS has listed 35 teachers training colleges on their portal for placement this year.
