Mount Kenya University has come up with strategies to align its academic curricula with the CBC requirements.
This is in preparation to receiving CBC students in the near future.
The university's board of directors has also committed to ensuring that the university receives infrastructural development that will go along way to increase access to tertiary education.
MKU founder and chairman Prof Simon Gicharu commended the university council and management for the collective efforts that have made it possible to realise the university's vision and mission.
He spoke during MKU's annual strategic directors' workshop in Nakuru earlier this week.
The three-day workshop was themed "unleashing campuses and ODeL centres full potential for optimal performance".
University council chairman Prof David Serem and vice chancellor Prof Deogratius Jaganyi attended.
The participants drawn from MKU local and regional campuses reflected on the university's strategic direction as it continues to offer high quality university education and vibrant online learning supported by modern ICT technologies and ODeL centres.
This comes at the time those who received their KCSE exam results will be exploring the institutions to pursue their dream careers.
The university has also established Equip Africa Institute and Equip Africa College of Medical and Health Sciences as the TVET arm to create the much-needed skilled manpower for technical and vocational training.
Prof Serem urged universities to continue improving their services to nurture highly qualified graduates who are ready for the job market, especially self-employment.
He said this will only be possible if quality inputs in terms of qualified students, motivated human capital and academic resources are put in place and optimally utilised.
Prof Jaganyi said,"Institutions of higher learning will be the driver of the transformation of national and regional economies through the provision of teaching, research and community outreach services."
Principal coordination of campuses, data governance and quality management Dr Nahashon Mwirigi urged campus directors to carry out the university operations ethically and add value to students who pass through their hands.
He said each campus will be a Centre of Excellence to ensure graduates are highly sought after in the labour market.
In November last year the university successfully went through Regular Institutional Quality Audit carried out by the Commission for University Education (CUE).
