⚠ Machakos Institute of Technology licence expires 3 November 2026. Confirm renewal before enrolling.

Accreditation isn’t the whole picture. Every fully-licensed college above meets TVETA inspection standards. But a valid licence doesn’t tell you about teaching quality, facilities, or reputation. Visit the college, speak to current students, and ask about exam pass rates before you enroll.

Machakos County’s TVET Landscape

Machakos County sits at a strategic junction between Nairobi and the wider Eastern region, and its TVET sector reflects that position. The county has a notably diverse geographic spread of institutions — unlike Kisumu or Uasin Gishu where colleges cluster tightly in one city, Machakos County institutions are distributed across Machakos Town, Athi River, Mlolongo, Mitaboni, and Mumbuni. This mirrors the county’s own economic geography: Athi River and Mlolongo serve the industrial and export processing zone corridor, while Machakos Town anchors the county’s administrative and services economy.

Engineering and technical trades are a distinguishing specialism: Mumbuni Engineering and Driving School (TVETA/PRIVATE/TVC/0024/2020) is the county’s dedicated engineering and driving institution, licensed until March 2030. Machakos Institute of Technology — the county’s oldest-registered TVETA institution, on the register since 2014 — has historically anchored technical education in the region, though its November 2026 licence expiry warrants a direct check before enrolment.

The county also holds one of Kenya’s few TVETA-licensed institutions dedicated to persons with disabilities: Machakos Abled Differently Rehabilitation and Vocational Centre (TVETA/PRIVATE/VTC/0015/2021), licensed through May 2031, offering inclusive vocational training in the county.
