Huduma Kenya, in collaboration with the Kenya Engineering Technologists Registration Board (KETRB), has officially rolled out KETRB services in 10 Huduma Centres across the country.
The launch event at Huduma Centre Eldoret marks a significant step in bringing regulatory and professional support services closer to engineering technologists, technicians and artisans.
The services are now available in Eldoret, Garissa, Meru, Makueni, Mombasa, Makadara, Nyeri, Bomet, Kakamega and Kisumu Huduma Centres.
Among the key services introduced are the registration of engineering technologists, technicians, technology firms, craft persons and artisans.
The event was graced by Dr. Jacob Mbijiwe, representing the Principal Secretary in the State Department for Public Service and Human Capital Development, alongside Samuel Maina, representing the Principal Secretary in the State Department for Roads. It was presided over by Huduma Kenya CEO Ben Kai Chilumo and KETRB CEO Kigo Florence.
Speaking during the launch, Dr. Mbijiwe urged government entities to take full advantage of the Huduma Centre model.
“I want to take this opportunity to urge Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) who have not deployed their services in the One-Stop Shop to take advantage of our Universal Agents and deploy their services across the 58 Huduma Centres,” said Dr. Mbijiwe.
Integrating KETRB services into Huduma Centres is expected to enhance professional capacity building, promote networking, and create linkages to local and international job opportunities for Kenyan engineering professionals.
