No single institution can work alone and the power of a handshake is a force of change in itself. Over the years we have had various partnerships with Government in the development of curriculums and programs that have included Applied Theology and Community Development course, Total Life Management, Employability, and Entrepreneurship Courses. We have partnered with various county governments on various agendas and the office of The Kiambu County Woman Representative headed by Hon Gathoni Wamuchomba has been a great support.
We have had global business partners such as Transformation Business Network as well as other regional and local partners including our faithful suppliers and examination bodies.
Transformative Education is a form of Wealth that we need to inculcate in our youth so that they have a love for both academics and other forms of training and acquisition of knowledge such as reading. A holistic education will ensure generations to come find a platform that will propel them to their own greatness and to leave legacies for those behind. With the explosion of digital communication and media today, information is one thing we are Not short of yet true and effective knowledge needs to be a deliberate part of our culture.
The right Knowledge is our food and wealth. The wrong knowledge is our destruction and our poverty. Our philosophies, our cultures, our ways are shaped in the knowledge realm hence mentalities are formed whether positive or negative. Therefore, if we want to change aspects of our society, we will need to look at the quality and effectiveness of knowledge and information reaching the minds of the community.
