Welcome to the Karen Technical Training Institute for the Deaf, where innovation meets inspiration, and our students dance to the rhythm of success in a world that speaks the language of possibilities.
The Chronicles of Karen Technical: Where Every Deaf Dream Takes Flight
Once upon a time, in the enchanted realm of 1990, a magical institution emerged under the benevolent gaze of the State Department of Science and Technology – Karen Technical Training Institute for the Deaf. Its mission? To bestow technical training upon the deaf youth of Kenya, turning dreams into reality.
Our institute is a beacon of learning, where the art of craftsmanship and the dance of diplomas take center stage. Why, you ask? Well, the journey begins with the limited number of Deaf Youth completing the KCPE and the brave few who venture into the mystic realms of KCSE. And thus, our institute becomes the bridge to a world where technical skills are the magic wands of success.
In the grand transition of January 2015, the Institute stepped into a new era, moving under the umbrella of the State Department of Science and Technology, Directorate of TVET, gaining a higher profile fit for the stars.
Behold, the Board of Governors, our mighty wizards. They determine our vision, mission, and sprinkle our core values like stardust – commitment, hard work, integrity, and teamwork. With a wave of their governance wand, they ensure the harmony of our strategy with the purpose and desires of our stakeholders.
Our administrative structure is a symphony led by the Principal, the virtuoso of leadership, supported by the Deputy Principal, Registrar, Dean of Students, and Heads of Departments. Together, they weave the melody of day-to-day operations, ensuring every note plays in the rhythm of success.
Now, let's talk departments – the magical realms where dreams take form:
- Academic Wizards conjure knowledge spells.
- Institutional Managers weave administrative enchantments.
- Agriculture Wizards cultivate fields of wisdom.
- Building and Construction Mages craft realms of structure.
- Electrical and Electronics Engineers electrify the path of innovation.
- Communication and Sign Language Sorcerers speak the language of unity.
- Information, Communication Technology Warlocks wield the power of pixels.
- Automotive Engineering Alchemists turn wheels into dreams.
- Hair and Beauty Enchanters create beauty in every strand.
- Clothing Technology Magicians stitch threads of creativity.
- Business Studies and Entrepreneurship Sages chart the course of entrepreneurship.
But what about evaluations, you ask? Fear not! Two External Examining Bodies, the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) and the National Industrial Training Authority (NITA), are our magical overseers, ensuring fairness and excellence in every test.
And so, our mission is clear – to offer Technical and Vocational Education and Training with a touch of modern technology and innovation. Guided by our core values, we aspire to be a center of excellence for the hearing-challenged and the hearing.
In the enchanting halls of Karen Technical, we believe in the magic of commitment, the spell of hard work, the charm of integrity, the power of teamwork, and the allure of professionalism. Welcome to a world where every deaf dream takes flight.
