The Kenya National Qualifications Authority (KNQA) has today convened a crucial workshop aimed at validating the Qualifications Alignment Guidelines, bringing together key stakeholders in the education sector.
The session was led by KNQA Council Chair, Hon. Stanley Kiptis, who was accompanied by Dr. Alice Kande, the Director General/CEO, Dr. Winnie Bulimo, and Dr. Benson Kairu, the Development & Recognition Manager for Africa at the International Baccalaureate (IBO).
The workshop, spearheaded by the Qualification Alignment and Validation department, seeks to create a shared understanding among Qualification Awarding Bodies (QABs) on the alignment of qualifications within Kenya’s education framework. The validation of these guidelines is expected to enhance consistency, transparency, and international comparability of local qualifications.
By fostering dialogue with key stakeholders, KNQA aims to strengthen Kenya’s National Qualifications Framework (KNQF), ensuring that qualifications meet global standards while facilitating seamless transitions for learners and professionals within the education system and job market.
This initiative underscores KNQA’s commitment to advancing skills development, promoting quality education, and supporting Kenya’s socio-economic growth through a well-structured qualifications framework.
