At @RoxEngineers, we fully support initiatives that strengthen safety culture within Kenyaās construction industry.
Continuous improvement, practical training and capacity building are key to safer projects. Kudos to @EngineersBoard and all stakeholders championing this agenda.šš¾
Engineering Safety: Building safer construction sites begins with building safer professionals.
The Engineers Board of Kenya (EBK), with support from Lloydās Register Foundation (LRF), continues to spearhead a transformative programme aimed at strengthening safety culture within Kenyaās construction industry.
The initiative focuses on equipping engineering students, practitioners, and construction workers with practical safety knowledge and skills through curriculum development, industry short courses, construction site monitoring tools, and policy reforms designed to enhance compliance and reduce workplace accidents.
@EngineersBoard convened a finalization workshop bringing together stakeholders from academia, industry, and regulatory institutions, with support from DOSH, to streamline and finalize 11 identified industry short courses and advance the development of safety policy frameworks for the construction sector.
Since the launch of the programme, key milestones achieved include nationwide stakeholder surveys, establishment of technical working groups, strategic engagements with industry regulators, curriculum development for engineering students, and the design of monitoring tools to strengthen safety compliance on construction sites.
Through collaboration, innovation, and capacity building, EBK remains committed to fostering a proactive safety culture and supporting safer infrastructure development across Kenyaās engineering value chain.

This week the @EAC_KENYA, a Committee established by the Engineers Board of Kenya (EBK) pursuant to Section 8 of the Engineers Act, 2011, conducted an Outcome-Based Education (OBE) training workshop for engineering lecturers and university staff drawn from universities within the Rift Valley region.
The universities represented included the host institution, University of Eldoret
(@UoE_Main), @MoiUniKenya, @egertonunikenya and @MMUST_Kenya. The training forms part of Kenyaās broader efforts to attain Full Signatory Status to the Washington Accord by 2029, following the countryās achievement of Provisional Status in June 2025.
The objective can only be achieved through the systematic and institution-wide adoption of Outcome-Based Education in engineering programmes across the country.
Speaking during the workshop, @EngineersBoard Ag. Registrar/CEO, Eng. Grace Onyango, noted that the training seeks to strengthen the capacity of engineering lecturers and university staff to implement Washington Accord-aligned Outcome-Based Education standards and equip with practical skills in developing OBE-aligned curricula, course learning outcomes and assessment tools.
She further noted that the programme is aimed at promoting student-centered and active learning approaches, strengthening institutional capacity for continuous quality improvement through proper documentation and evidence generation, and supporting a smooth transition of all recognized engineering programmes to OBE.
She emphasized that Outcome-Based Education represents a fundamental shift in engineering education and stated that Kenyaās journey towards Full Washington Accord Signatory Status by 2029 will largely depend on effective implementation at the institutional level.

Representing the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Eldoret, Prof. Wilson Ngāetich, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Administration & Finance), observed that universities are operating in an increasingly competitive and globalized environment where graduates are expected to compete effectively at both regional and international levels.
He noted that institutions that fail to align their programmes with internationally recognized standards risk producing graduates whose qualifications may not receive global recognition.
Prof. Ngāetich further highlighted that successful implementation of OBE requires comprehensive institutional support, including faculty capacity development, continuous curriculum review, investment in laboratories and infrastructure, improved teaching and assessment methods, strong quality assurance systems, industry collaboration, adequate learning resources, and administrative support.
He further urged universities to strengthen collaboration and partnerships instead of working in isolation.
