About the InstituteA Pentarch company that teaches what Pentarch does every day.
Pentarch Training Institute prepares students and working people to create, design, research and train, and to earn from what they learn.
The training arm of the Pentarch family
Pentarch Training Institute is a sister company of Pentarch Communications, a Nairobi studio that builds websites, designs publications, runs campaigns and carries out research for ministries, international organisations, colleges and businesses.
Our trainers do that work every week, and they teach the same skills hands-on. Students do not only learn tools: they produce real work, publish it, and leave ready to earn.

- Built for earningEach course ends with skills and a portfolio people pay for, and advice on finding that work.
