Politics under the governorship position

The qualification system in Kenya is relevant in the following ways;

It reduces complexity and enables coherence, transparency and integration despite increasing regionalization, decentralization and individualization of provision (notably in relation to post-compulsory and continuing provision of education and training);
It opens access and enables progression to further qualifications, independent of whether they are basic, higher or vocational education and training qualifications;
The system enables learners and trainers to be guided and to facilitate them in identifying appropriate learning pathways
It provides support for quality assurance and the development of standards, for systems of credit accumulation and transfer, and to enhance transferability, comparability and compatibility of qualifications.
A qualification system makes qualifications more relevant to societal and labor market needs

Qualifications express what people know, understand and are able to do. They can take different forms such as a Bachelor’s degrees or Kenya Secondary Certificate Education. Transparency about what people actually learned in order to obtain a qualification (‘learning outcomes’) is key to ensuring that individuals, employers and education and training providers give the appropriate economic, social and academic value to qualifications.
