    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the specific way forward for those who had already graduated is a process which will require engaging to find out exactly where the gap was. The gap is not uniform across the board. What the Engineering Board said is that they are going to do investigations. At least, they decided that these students will do bridging courses to top-up and fill the specific areas where there was a shortage. Therefore, investigations are going on to find out where the gap is and then, specific courses will be offered. They have given us a duration of about six months to engage in that process. They will then advise about the specific place where the affected students should go. Probably, it will be to the mother university which, for the Technical University of Mombasa, was Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) so they can have a process to fill in the gaps there so that they are not completely locked away from the market due to the fact that they have degrees which they cannot utilize. Therefore, they will do bridging courses so that they can be registered by their professional body and practise as engineers.
