A morning of learning, connecting and thinking about what comes next for Kenya’s technology workforce.

Rehaan and Nasira are attending the CompTIA Skills & Talent Forum today at the Radisson Blu Hotel, Nairobi Upper Hill.

One of the conversations I’m particularly interested in is how we close the gap between the skills people are learning and the capabilities employers increasingly need. These are increasingly important across technology, AI, cybersecurity and data.

At Pitman Training Kenya, we see this connection between training, industry-recognised skills and employability becoming more important than ever.

Looking forward to meeting other training and education professionals, hearing the latest insights from the CompTIA team and exploring opportunities to strengthen pathways into the technology workforce.

If you’re here this morning, it would be great to connect.

Last Friday was a morning well spent connecting purpose, partnerships and impact.

We were delighted to represent Pitman Training Kenya at the launch of the I&M Sustainability Report, and to hear more about the I&M Foundation’s work and the impact being created across communities in Kenya.

For us at Pitman Training Kenya, this conversation was particularly meaningful. Through our partnership with the I&M Foundation on the Career Acceleration Programme (CAP), we have seen first-hand what can happen when organisations invest not only in education, but in practical skills, employability and pathways to opportunity for young people.

Events like this are also an important reminder that sustainable impact rarely happens in isolation. It takes collaboration between foundations, businesses, educators and communities; each bringing their strengths to the table.

Congratulations to the I&M Foundation team on the launch and on continuing to champion initiatives that create lasting social impact.

Looking forward to strengthening existing partnerships, building new ones and exploring how we can collectively equip more young Kenyans with the skills and confidence to thrive in the workplace.

Good conversations often start with a simple introduction, and lead to much bigger opportunities.

Pitman Training Kenya was pleased to be part of the British Chamber of Commerce Kenya’s BCCK Business Connect Speed Networking evening at KOFISI Kaskazi, General Mathenge.

Represented by our Head of Marketing and Partnerships, Rehaan Mehar, the evening gave us the opportunity to connect with leaders from organisations across different sectors, exchange perspectives and explore where future collaboration could create value.

For us, networking is about more than exchanging contacts. It is about understanding the challenges businesses are facing, building trusted relationships and finding practical ways to help organisations strengthen their people and workplace capabilities.

Thank you to the British Chamber of Commerce Kenya for creating such a focused and engaging platform, and to KOFISI for hosting us in a fantastic space.

We are looking forward to continuing some of the conversations that began around the table.
