dc.description.abstractThe Kenyan Governments’ vision 2030 plan seeks to make Kenya a middle level industrialized nation and improve the economic and social status of its citizens. The realization of this vision will be achieved with adequate human resource at the technology, technician and artisan levels of skill training. Technical Training institutions (TTIs) are charged with the responsibility to train technicians and artisans. Concerns have been raised on the quality and quantity of the graduates coming out of these training institutions. The current study sought to investigate strategies that should be put in place to enhance the training in TTIs. A descriptive survey research design was used for this study with heads of academic departments and students as respondents. Questionnaires and interview schedules were used for data collection. The study established that training was conducted with inadequate teaching staff and obsolete equipments. The study recommends that adequate staff should be hired in training institutions and programmes put in place to upgrade the skills and knowledge of trainers in light of changing technology. Training facilities in the training institutions should urgently be upgraded.
