Even as we aim for high education standards, we have not lost sight to our clientele hailing from the community around us, and as such, our systems are modestly structured to meet the needs of our students. Therefore, even as we aspire to globalize, we also wish to localize for the benefits of the surroundings. Towards these, we have mounted more market oriented programmes and have re-introduce TVET programmes to provide hands on technical skills.
