Frequently asked
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. Every course is a PTI Certified professional course. You receive your certificate when you complete the course and present your project.
When do classes run?
Most courses run on evenings and Saturdays so they fit around studies and work. Full-day bootcamps are available for organisations, teams and anyone who wants to learn fast. Each class date shows its schedule.
What do I need to bring?
A laptop is best for most courses. For video, photography and social media courses a good smartphone is enough to start. Tell us if you need advice before you register.
How do I pay?
Register online, then pay by M-Pesa. You receive the payment details on screen and by email straight away. Card payments are also available on request.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes. You can pay this course in 2 instalments. Pick "Pay in instalments" when you register: you pay the first one to hold your seat, and the form shows the date and amount of each payment that follows. We send a reminder before each one, and your payment page always shows what you have paid and what is left.
Is there a group rate?
Yes. When a group of 10 or more people registers together, each person pays KES 19,000 instead of KES 22,500. One person registers as group leader and lists the members.
Can my organisation book this course for staff?
Yes. We run this course for teams, with dates and examples tailored to your organisation. See the For organisations page or message us.
