National Volunteer Programme

The National Volunteers Program  is a national initiative that is designed to provide volunteership opportunities to university graduates. Through this initiative, the university graduates will be recruited as Volunteer Graduate Assistants (VGA) to work in education and training institutions with the aim of improving access to quality career guidance and counselling services. The Program seeks to provide 3-month volunteership opportunities for university graduates. These university graduates will be recruited as Volunteer Graduate Assistants (VGAs) to assist in improving access to quality career guidance and counselling services in public primary, secondary and VTT institutions. The VGAs will assist in establishing and operationalizing Office of Career Services (OCS) and ensuring that they meet quality standards.

The project addresses itself to the objectives of Vision 2030, the Big Four Agenda, the Medium Term Plan (MTP) III and the National Education Sector Plan (NESP) 2018-2022 which aim at providing adequate and relevantly skilled labour force. This is vital in sustaining Kenya as a newly industrialized middle-income country
