    "content": "The VTCs accredited by TVETA to offer CBET courses have been trained and capacity built to implement Level 3 and Level 4 CBET curriculum in these institutions. Trainers from the VTCs offering CBET have additionally been engaged by TVET CDACC as contracted professionals in the Level 3 and Level 4 courses. As assessors, the persons who develop and validate assessment tools, and also as examiners, these are the people engaged to mark national examinations. The same are engaged as supervisors, invigilators and monitoring officers to oversee the conduct of summative assessments. TVET CDACC works closely with VTCs offering CBET assessments in their timely assessment series, which are three in a year. That is March/April; July/August and November/December. It is also important to note that county governments are represented in the boards of governors of TVET institutions in their respective counties. The Second Schedule of the Technical and Vocational Education and Training Act provides for a representative of the county governor of the county within which the institution is located to be a member of the board. As a Ministry, we work closely with the county governments in implementing this requirement. This ensures that the voice of the county government is represented in the management of technical and vocational education institutions within their counties. Through TVET CDACC, the Ministry has developed 165 CBET curricula and occupational standards for the Kenya National Qualifications Framework Level 3 and 4. They are currently being implemented by the vocational training centres at county level. TVET CDACC has also worked to develop the capacity of the VTC trainers. The counties that have so far benefited from this are indicated as follows-"
