Diploma Courses you should not pursue in Kenya—They are not marketable

We have always talked about marketable diploma courses in Kenya, but we haven’t touched on the less valuable courses which almost every employer shun.

Nearly every Kenyan has set eyes on employment, of course except a few who aspire to be entrepreneurs. More than often, there is insufficient knowledge in regards to which courses to take and the ones to drop. If someone offers to guide you, they have to seek compensation, which is without reach of most Kenyans. Our aim is to give free information based on employment trends, salary scales and future prospects of individual courses. As results, we have come up with a list of courses not to do in college and the ones you should embrace…remember this is your life and the more careful you are the better.
