Sessional Paper No. 02 of 2013 on National Industrial Training and Attachment Policy

Abstract

The National Development Blueprint, Kenya Vision 2030, recognizes human resource as crucial for accelerating the transformation of the country into a rapidly industrializing middle-income country. To quote the Social Pillar of the Vision, ''Kenya intends to create a globally competitive human resource base to meet the requirements of a rapidly industrializing economy'~ This will be achieved through life-long industrial training and attachment informed by relevant Labour Market Information. Industrial training produces human resources with knowledge and skills that meet the needs of industry. Industrial attachment equips attachees with practical skills and exposure to real work situations. It also enables them to internalize relevant work ethics, values and upgrade their skills to enhance level of employability and productivity.
