Main Story
The Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) has raised concerns over the rise of fake training programmes being promoted in connection with the upcoming Grade 10 learner registration under the Competency-Based Education (CBE) system.
According to the council, some individuals and organisations are falsely presenting themselves as authorised trainers, claiming to offer official guidance on assessment processes linked to the new education structure.

KNEC has clarified that these programmes are not recognised and warned that they are misleading teachers, school administrators, and other education stakeholders.
The council emphasized that all official training, communication, and registration procedures are strictly handled through approved government systems and recognised institutions.
Call for Vigilance in Schools
