Africa’s first Talent University in Kisumu gets interim letter to train students 

The Ministry of Education has issued an interim letter for the first Talent University in the Country.

The Cabinet Secretary in charge of Education Julius Migos  Ogamba said the Ministry has granted a letter of interim authority to the Kisumu based The African Talent University (TATU).

The Cabinet Secretary says the letter now enables the institution to train and award qualifications, while it works towards securing full accreditation.

 

He says the letter now allows the University to train and award qualifications, while it works towards acquiring full accreditation

 

The CS says by granting the Interim letter to the University, the Government is fully committed in ensuring that it expands access to higher education by increasing opportunities for education and training in addition to providing funding.

 

Proprietor Professor Humphrey Oborah welcomed the move, saying it is a culmination of a two-decade struggle marked by resistance, misunderstanding and persistent opposition.

 

“Today, that idea has finally been recognised. In a historic milestone for education in Africa, the Government of Kenya, through the Commission for University Education, has officially accredited The African Talent University, marking the birth of the continent’s first university dedicated to talent-based learning." Prof Oborah says.
