"Studying at Taita Taveta National Polytechnic was a truly transformative experience. During my time here, I pursued a Diploma in Social Work, which laid a strong foundation for my passion in youth empowerment, counseling, and substance abuse prevention.

TTNP helped me grow both professionally and personally. I honed my communication and public speaking skills, developed impactful awareness talks, and began using social media to create content focused on drug abuse, relapse prevention, and personal growth.

Integrating Christian values into my work, I now serve communities with a deep sense of purpose and fulfillment. I am truly grateful to TTNP for equipping me to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others."

"Serving as the President of the Students’ Governing Council at Taita Taveta National Polytechnic in 2023 was a defining chapter in my leadership journey. During my tenure, I was honored to represent the student body—not only within the institution but also across the Coast region and nationally within the TVET sector.

I took pride in championing key reforms in education, including advocating for the new funding model and addressing systemic challenges affecting Technical and Vocational Education and Training institutions in Kenya. My focus remained on promoting student welfare, inclusivity, and the critical role of technical training in empowering young people and driving national development.

Leadership at TTNP taught me the value of vision, collaboration, and courageous advocacy. I am deeply grateful for the platform the Polytechnic provided to make a meaningful impact, and I remain committed to inspiring the next generation of changemakers in education and beyond."

"Studying Hospitality at Taita Taveta National Polytechnic was the stepping stone to my dream career. The training I received was hands-on, industry-relevant, and grounded in professionalism — exactly what I needed to thrive in the competitive culinary field.

Thanks to the supportive instructors and practical learning environment at TTNP, I developed not only technical skills in food preparation and service, but also discipline, creativity, and attention to detail — qualities that have been vital in my current role as a Chef at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA).

Every day, I serve travelers from around the world, and I carry the TTNP values of excellence and service with pride. I’m grateful to the Polytechnic for shaping my skills and preparing me to work in one of the busiest and most dynamic kitchens in the country."
