The EVENT
ORGANISERS
A very warm welcome to all exhibitors and visitors who have travelled from various parts of this country
and elsewhere in the world to participate and/or visit this 20th Nairobi international Education Fair (NIEF)
in Nairobi, Kenya.
This Fair provides a one-stop forum for local and international colleges and universities to engage students,
school leavers, teachers and parents on careers and training programmes being offered by these institutions.
Other young persons, including the working class people wishing to advance their Education, will also benefit
from this Fair.
NIEF is the mother of the Regional and Career Fairs organized in various regions of this country. We have just
completed a successful Fair in Machakos. After this Fair, we will be headed to Mombasa. Others to follow will
be Eldoret, Kakamega, Kisii, Kisumu, Meru, Nakuru and Nyeri.
The 47 counties, which were recently created by Kenya’s new constitution, are new enclaves of social and
economic development in this country. The devolved governance system has moved many people with good
disposable incomes to the counties attracting impressive business activities. As a result of this, many corporate
firms and institutions have also realigned their operations and businesses to this new dispensation.
These Regional Education and Career Fairs assist the local and international colleges and universities to have
structured engagement with students, teachers, parents and the general public in those areas for the benefit
of all parties.
The government, the people of Kenya and many other interested organizations are deeply disturbed by the
serious unemployment in this country. One of the major causes is lack of work and entrepreneurial skills among
job seekers. The new focus now is to promote the provision of those skills. At these Fairs we are targeting
Kenyans of all ages and levels of Education who desire to be trained for work and entrepreneurial skills, taking
into consideration their interests, abilities and talents.
Training institutions ranging from the leading international universities and colleges, local public and private
universities and colleges and TVET public and private colleges as well as vocational training centres and youth
polytechnics offering recognized career courses will be at hand to guide all those students, school leavers and
other young Kenyans who require training and acquisition of work and entrepreneurial skills.
The events will be organized for the next several years until all young Kenyans would have been properly
sensitized on the need not only to be educated but more importantly to acquire the skills that are required by
their prospective employers.
Once again we thank you for choosing to do business with us. We will continuously strive to be relevant to your
future business plans in the Education sector in Kenya.

students from over 27 African countries and exchange students and faculty from our sister Universities in the
US, UK, South Korea, Latin America and the Philippines. When we say that “what begins at ANU transforms
the world”, it is as much an affirmation of the quality of Education we offer as it is an affirmation of the global
positioning of our students.

regions of Kenya, is the leading promoter and marketer of Education services in Kenya.
The firm, which is also the leading alternative media in Kenya, provides all basic information on Education sector
in Kenya through its annual Kenya Education Directory and its online platform www.educationinkenya.com.
ECL provides the same services in the Medical sector through its annual Kenya Medical Directory and its online
version www.healthcareinkenya.com.
The company’s flagship project in the division Fairs is The Nairobi International Education Fair (NIEF) which
is the most informative and comprehensive Education and Careers Fair of its kind in Africa. Now entering the
20th edition, it continues to be the most popular delivering rich information on institutions of higher learning
from across the globe. The Fair is well positioned as it takes place soon after the Kenya Certificate of Secondary
Education results and when students studying IGCSE/IB are making their University/College selection.
The main purpose of those events is to bring together universities, colleges and other relevant institutions as
well as students, school leavers, teachers and parents in one venue to engage and benefit from each other.
This programme, going under theme Focusing Work and Entrepreneurship Skills Training, is a new effort, a
new dawn which is targeting Kenyan of all ages and level of education who desire to be trained for work or
entrepreneurial skills, taking into consideration their interests, abilities and talents.
Training institutions ranging from the leading International Universities and Colleges, Local Public and Private
Universities and Colleges, TVET Public and Private Colleges as well as Vocational Training Centres and Youth
Polytechnics offering recognized career courses will be at hand to guide all students, school leavers and other
young Kenyans who require training and acquisition of work and entrepreneurial skills.
This is the focus of the government and all local and international stakeholders who are concerned with Kenya’s
serious unemployment problems which has largely been caused by lack of work and entrepreneurial skills which
are required in industry.
The events will be organized for the next several years until all young Kenyans would have been properly
sensitized on the need not only to be educated but more importantly to acquire the skills that are required by
their prospective employers or start their own businesses.
