science and technology into goods and services. Integration of ST&I, Higher and Technical education in national production processes is central to the success of Government’s policy priorities and programmes as outlined under Kenya Vision 2030. This is especially true within the context of demands of global competitiveness concerns. Development of the necessary Higher education, scientific and technological infrastructure is an essential prerequisite to the transformation of Kenya into a knowledge-based society. Development of innovative ideas generated by higher and Technical education into products, processes and services is dependent on a well defined and supportive education policy. In its long term development strategy, outlined in Vision 2030, the Government of Kenya envisages a nation that is globally competitive and prosperous with a high quality of life by the year 2030. In pursuit of the vision, MTTI, under the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology sees itself as part of the machinery that will be harnessed to stimulate technological and industrial transformation. In order to realize the above, the Institute commits itself to facilitating the identification, acquisition, transfer, diffusion and application of relevant ST&I, higher and technical education in various sectors of the economy. In this regard, the Institute seeks the concerted and supportive efforts by all stakeholders for successful implementation of this strategic plan. In conclusion, I would like to pay tribute to each and all those who participated in the compilation of the first edition of this strategic plan, especially Mr Micheal Kahiti and Mr Humprey Tsuma. I urge all stakeholders to embrace and implement this strategic plan. Prof. James Kanyua, Chairman, Board of Governors MTTI STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2019 Page iv 8 PREAMBLE The Ministry of Education, Science and Technology has positioned itself to lead the country into a knowledge-based society in the 21st Century. This comes at a time when the country is striving to ensure sustained economic growth despite the decline in major world economies. Kenya today requires emphasise and accelerate her usage of specialized knowledge, information, and innovativeness to support and expand her economy. The purpose of the expansion and, by extension, the utilization of science, technology and innovation is to improve the socio-economic status of the people and lay the foundation for sustainable development. The MTTI Strategic Plan provides the vision and mission that will guide all those involved in its execution. It presents an analysis of the internal and external environment using SWOT and Gap analyses. Subsequently, it identifies key stakeholders and their roles; outlines the strategic issues and objectives and identifies suitable strategies to address them. Given the growth of the Institute which augurs well with its planned upgrading into a National Polytechnic, mobilization of the vast resources required is a top priority. The plan prioritizes activities to be implemented under the strategies; and provides an implementation plan, a monitoring and evaluation system and a projection of the resource requirements. The achievement of the objectives of this Strategic Plan requires the support and input of stakeholders including all Government Ministries, the Private Sector, Civil society, NGOs, research institutions in ST&I and TE, Universities and Development Partners among others. The consultative process, through which this plan has been developed, gives me the confidence that it is jointly owned by all stakeholders and will therefore, receive the necessary support in its implementation. Mr Bashir H Mursal Principal and Secretary to the Board of Governors MTTI STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2019 Page v 8 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 1st Strategic Plan 2009 -2014 was prepared on the basis of the narrower mandate of the Mombasa Technical Training Institute.

It was established in 1950 as a Technical High School. Upon the introduction of the 8-4-4 system of education, it was elevated to a middle level technical college in 1984 to provide technical training for the middle level man power for both the private and public sectors of the economy. The trainees in the institute are drawn from fresh secondary school leavers, graduates from other tertiary institutions, employees on part-time release basis and the informal (Jua Kali) sector. MTTI is managed by a Board of Governors (BOG), which consists of 13 members appointed by the Government to represent the community, industrialists, professionals and various governmental departments. The Principal serves as the Secretary to the Board. The Institution operates under the Education Act and offers curriculum developed by the Kenya Institute of curriculum development (KICD) and the Directorate of Industrial Training (DIT). MTTI offers courses at Artisan, Craft and Diploma levels, plus a plethora of short-term certificate courses in the part-time programme. All the courses offered at Craft and Diploma levels incorporate Entrepreneurship Training and Industrial Attachment to prepare the trainees for formal and self-employment. The examining bodies are the Kenya National Examinations council (KNEC), DIT and Kenya Accountants and Secretaries National Examination Board (KASNEB). MTTI is a member of the Kenya Association of Technical Training Institutions (KATTI). MTTI has seen tremendous growth in terms of courses offered and the student enrolment from an initial population of 23 students and 24 teaching staff in 1990 to the current 3000students and 94 teaching staff respectively. This has resulted in a strain on the training facilities whose expansion has unfortunately not matched this student growth. The demands from the market and the changes in curriculum and technology have not been matched by additional training facilities in terms of space, equipment and staff. MTTI has been identified by the Government of Kenya (GoK) for up-grading to a national polytechnic. The Institution is bracing itself for such an up-grade to take full advantage of its enhanced capacity in terms of staff numbers and calibre, physical facilities, wide spectrum of courses, unique location close to Central Business District (CBD) of Mombasa and major industries and commercial organizations, existing transportation infrastructure and housing. 1.3 VISION To be a leading centre of excellence in training. 1.4 MISSION To produce manpower that is technologically competitive in the advancing labour market. 1.5 MANDATE MTTI STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2019 Page 1 8 To produce highly skilled manpower that is also suitable for further training through quality, inclusive and equitable TVET programmes responsive to National, Regional and Global competitiveness. 1.6 CORE FUNCTIONS To implement curriculum and training in TVET programmes. To carry out research programmes. To integrate science, technology and innovation into community activities. To create linkages and collaborations with other institutions and liaise with industry 1.7 CORE VALUES MTTI’s Core Values include the following among others: Honesty, integrity and transparency Excellence, Innovativeness and Creativity Consultative decision-making World-class programmes and standards Respect for human and gender rights Professionalism, team spirit and discipline 1.8. Justification of the Review of MTTI Strategic Plan As a public Institution in the government of Kenya, MTTI is desirous to define its strategic direction in line with the government policy as set out in the guidelines on strategic planning as was issued by the Ministry responsible for Planning and National Development and Vision 2030, guidelines on MTEF by the Ministry of Finance, guidelines on the performance contracting by the reform and performance contract secretariat, Kenya vision 2030 – Medium Term Plan, sessional paper No. 1 of 2005, TVET bill 2012 and all education programmes among others. All these take into account the dynamic circumstances in the demand for Higher Education. MTTI 2014-2019 Strategic Plan covers all these key policy documents and provides the Institute’svision, mission, core functions, core values, strategic issues, strategic objectives, and organizational structure and resource requirements. The emphasis in the strategic planning process has been placed on the current emerging trends that affect the growth of any learning institution in this country. MTTI STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2019 Page 2 8 1.9 CURRENT ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE Mombasa Technical Training Institute is a public institution under the ministry of Education, science and Technology. The institute is managed by BOG under the new TVET Act appointed by the Minister whose function is to govern, control and manage the institute. The Principal who is the secretary to the board administers or runs the Institute. The top management who assist the principal in the day to day running of the Institution consists the deputy principal administration, the deputy principal academic affairs, the registrar and the dean of students, departmental heads and non-departmental heads. The current Organisational structure for the Institute is depicted in appendix 2. It takes cognisance of the need to integrate some functions and departments while also introducing new posts. The current structure will make the governance and management of the Institute more efficient and effective. See structure in Appendix 2 MTTI STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2019 Page 3 8 CHAPTER TWO: FORMATIVE ANALYSIS 2.1 INTRODUCTION To say that the world is a global village is now a well-known cliché. Technology and innovation have ensured that boundaries now only exist in peoples’ minds and hearts. No institution can insulate itself from the rapid changes taking place technologically, if global competitiveness is to be part and parcel of its culture. MTTI is part of the world, and we must move with the world by delivering our contribution to the national goals as enshrined in Vision 2030. The leadership of the nation realised that the country belongs up there with the stars. Countries that were at par with Kenya at independence are now known as economic ‘tigers’ for their robust economies, high standards of living and advancements in technology. The Vision 2030 is the vehicle to take Kenya there and we are currently in the first of several medium term plans that in their total fulfilment will show remarkable change in this nation. Among the tools for forging the realisation of the Vision are research, innovation, high quality human resource, collaborations, governance reforms, infrastructure and quality education and training. MTTI has a role to play as one of the cogs that will help turn the wheels of development. The institute will participate in the activities that support the economic pillar of the Vision. This Strategic Plan is the road map that indicates MTTI’s role in the transformation of the nation. The plan also intends to lead the institute to a higher level of consciousness where yesterday’s and today’s challenges will not be insurmountable. It will be a concrete pathway that will prove to be a reliable guide for the current and any forthcoming administration on the advancement and growth of MTTI. 2.2 SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS (2014) The plan demands change; change in the way we perceive things, the way we solve problems and in the way we relate with each other. It demands change in the way we deliver our services to our clients, as laid out in the accompanying Service Charter. Albert Einstein famously said, “No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.” This Strategic Plan is thus a forward-looking document that takes cognisance of where the institute stands currently and the challenges of moving to the glorious future envisaged in vision 2030.

ICT 41,700,000 TOTAL COST 5,005,175,000 4.2 Strategies for Resource Mobilization and Utilization Over the years, the Institute has had very limited resources to support its core functions. Given these resource constraints, the Institute will vigorously pursue additional funding and technical support from the Ministry and development partners. In this regard, the Institute will lobby and mobilize financial resources from the following sources: 4.2.1 GOVERNMENT FUNDING MTTI STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2019 Page 30 8 With regard to Government funding, the Institute will prepare, present and justify proposals as a basis for resource bidding from the Ministry. 4.2.2 INSTITUTE-PRIVATE SECTOR PARTNERSHIPS Private Sector partners are already supporting and are involved in the Institute’s endeavours. The Institute as part of its collaborations and linkages will engage their support to fill in the resource gap between the resources allocated by the Government and the Institute’s Strategic Plan. The Institute will prepare, present and justify proposals as a basis for resource support. 4.2.3 INTERNAL SOURCES The Institute will broaden and enhance its internal sources and generate funds from such activities as fee collection, sale of tender documents, hiring out facilities, consultancy and training, disposal of boarded stores and the activities of the Production Unit. 4.2.4 DONORS The Institute will source for funding and support from donors by writing and presenting proposals. CHAPTER FIVE: IMPLEMENTATION, MONITORING AND EVALUATION 5.1 Phasing and Review The Strategic Plan will be implemented in five phases between 2014 and 2019 as follows: Year 1 2 3 4 5 Start July 2014 July 2015 July 2016 July 2017 July 2018 Finish June 2015 June 2016 June 2017 June 2018 June 2019 Duration in Months 12 12 12 12 12 The Plan will be reviewed annually by the Monitoring and Evaluation Team to make it relevant to global changes in technology, industrial practice, economic development, policies etc. Some objectives may be overtaken by events or other circumstances outside the control of the Institute, and this may necessitate change of direction. 5.2 Quick Wins This approach is aimed at creating and maintaining a momentum of quick results, and generally keeping the Strategic Plan alive and relevant. It will be carried out along the lines of the Rapid Results Initiative developed by the Public Service Commission. The Management will be required to periodically outline a set MTTI STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2019 Page 31 8 of activities that can be completed within the period of a term (approximately 100 days). A Quick Win activity is defined as one that: a) Can be carried out within a short time. b) Has an immediate and conspicuous impact. c) Benefits as many people in the Institute as possible. 5.3 Assumptions It is assumed that during the period of implementing the Strategic Plan: a) A stable and conducive political and social environment will prevail. b) The funds needed to operationalize the activities will be available. c) The Institute will be elevated to National Polytechnic Status. 5.4 Implementation Matrix A detailed Implementation Matrix summarizing the means of addressing each Strategic Issue, and the known cost implications is presented on page 24. 5.5 Monitoring and Evaluation Monitoring is an important management tool that helps management to make decisions aimed at improving performance, to determine whether the programme is on course and if it is likely to achieve the intended objectives, to ensure accountability to all parties involved in the programme, to assess the use and delivery of the resources in accordance with the implementation plan and to monitor the achievement of the intended outputs on a timely manner. The main purpose is to enable managers to verify progress based on evidence-based decisions about any corrections needed in implementation. In this regard, MTTI will monitor and evaluate the inputs, activities and outputs to ensure that the strategic plan objectives are delivered in accordance with the implementation plan. An effective M&E mechanism will be designed and applied. Evaluation of the plan will serve two main purposes; first, to enquire into the feasibility of the plan and second, to assess the overall impact. Evaluation of the strategic plan will be useful in several ways; first, to avoid the possibility of wasting money by aiding the selection of the most effective options. Second, it will help the Institute to continue with a plan that is likely to produce the intended results and lastly, it will detect and correct some of the factors that may reduce the positive impact of the strategic plan. 5.6 Monitoring Methodologies Monitoring will involve routine data collection and analysis on the success of the implementation of this strategic plan. The results from the analysis will then be used to inform decision making at all levels. The objectives of the strategic plan will be reinforced through corrective measures when and if necessary. This will be achieved by: 1. Developing of monitoring and evaluation indicators at all levels of implementation 2. Carrying out continuous data collection, analysis and monthly reporting to the Ministerial Management Steering Committee 3. Carrying out random inspections and making objective observations 4. Conducting specially designed surveys and rapid assessments to assess progress 5. Carrying out participatory M&E (Stakeholders fora) 5.7 Evaluation Mechanism MTTI STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2019 Page 32 8 The strategic plan will be evaluated during and after implementation to ensure that it produces the intended results. The plan will inherently be subjected to independent evaluation to remove any element of bias. The evaluation will be carried out using relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, sustainability and impact measures. 5.8 Monitoring and Evaluation Team There shall be formed a Monitoring and Evaluation Team for the above purpose. This Team will be made up of 16 members as follows: The Head of Department and one Strategic Plan Officer from each of the 8 departments. The team will appoint its Chairman and Secretary and will come up with their own calendar of activities. The Team will compile a report to be presented to the Stakeholders in a suitable forum.
