KIM issues notice to students who studied btn 2018 and present after closure
The Kenya Institute of Management (KIM) has issued a notice to students who studied at the institution between 2018 and the present following a recent closure notice by the Technical and Vocational Education and Training Authority (TVETA).
In a statement on Tuesday, April 21, KIM said students remain a key priority as discussions with regulators continue, reassuring learners and alumni amid uncertainty over the matter.
“We want to assure you that your academic journey and your future are our top priorities. While we navigate these regulatory discussions, we are committed to providing you with clear and honest information,” the statement read.
KIM said its management is in active communication with the Ministry of Education and TVETA to resolve the accreditation concerns raised in the notice.
The institution also said its offices remain open to continue offering support and guidance to affected students.
It added that learners can reach the student support team through WhatsApp on 0716 351 533.
KIM further announced that it will hold a meeting later to provide additional details, urging students to keep checking its official communication channels for updates.

Earlier Monday, April 20, TVETA announced the immediate closure of all campuses operated by KIM, citing concerns over the institution’s continued operations despite lacking proper accreditation.
“It has come to the attention of the Authority that the Kenya Institute of Management (KIM) is offering and awarding various academic and professional programmes to members of the public without accreditation,” the statement read.
TVETA explained that while KIM had initially been accredited to offer programmes assessed and certified by the TVET Curriculum Development Assessment and Certification Council (TVET-CDACC), investigations revealed that the institution continued to operate outside these guidelines.
According to the authority, KIM has been offering unapproved programmes and awarding academic qualifications in violation of the TVET Act Cap 210A.
Additionally, TVETA noted that the institution engaged trainers who did not possess valid training licenses, contrary to the same law.
As a result, the authority issued a warning to the public regarding the validity of qualifications obtained from the institution.
