KMTC is globally recognised as a leading institution in middle-level health training, ranking ahead of several universities in the Webometrics global rankings.
The college’s mandate is to develop fit-for-purpose middle-level health professionals through transformative training, research, and consultancy.
The institution, which has 92 campuses across the country, has reaffirmed its commitment to delivering a comprehensive execution of this mandate.
Speaking recently at the conclusion of a three-day consultancy training workshop that brought together participants from all KMTC campuses, chief executive officer Kelly Oluoch challenged staff to accelerate the development of internal research and consultancy capacity.
He noted that while KMTC has excelled in training, gaps remain in research and consultancy delivery.
He acknowledged that the college is still at an early stage in its consultancy journey but described the initiative as a bold and strategic step forward.
“It is time for KMTC to develop its own capacity in research and consultancy. While we acknowledge that we are at the infancy stage, we have started this bold journey,” the CEO said, commending principals, managers and staff for their commitment to advancing the college’s mandate.
He further urged participants to explore emerging areas such as digital transformation in medical education, lifelong learning systems, and health innovation incubation, positioning KMTC as a continental hub for health innovation and consultancy.
He cited previous consultancy engagements, including projects aimed at improving maternal and newborn health, as a foundation for scaling up future institutional consultancy work.
The consultancy training workshop marks a strategic milestone in KMTC’s push to strengthen its research and consultancy pillar, reinforcing its commitment to transformative impact in healthcare education and systems strengthening.
