For HELB beneficiaries
HELB Funding Covers Your Studies. KUCIAP Finds Your Attachment.
If you receive HELB funding, you already know the value of planning ahead. An industrial attachment is a required part of many Kenyan programmes, so securing a placement early matters. KUCIAP lists verified industrial attachment opportunities from approved organizations across Kenya.
Plan your attachment alongside your HELB-funded studies
HELB supports your tuition and upkeep while you study. The industrial attachment is a different task: you need an employer who will take you on for a defined period and give you supervised, practical work experience. That placement is normally arranged by you, and it is easiest to secure when you can see many openings in one place.
On KUCIAP, every listing is an industrial attachment from an approved organization, with details such as location, duration, and available slots. You can search by industry category and location so you can find placements near your institution or home county.
