Education: A Transformative Competency Training Experience

From March 11-14, 2025, we hosted an impactful Competency Training for Theological Education Librarians and Information Technology Personnel at CORAT, Nairobi, Kenya. Bringing together 33 dedicated professionals from 31 theological institutions across Kenya, this initiative fostered collaboration, innovation, and skill development to strengthen academic excellence.

Participants engaged in hands-on training in Educational Technology, Best Practices, and Resource Enhancement, equipping them with essential tools to enhance library and ICT services. Their enthusiasm and dedication highlighted the essential role of well-equipped librarians and I.T. personnel in the advancement of theological education.

This success would not have been possible without the generosity and support of our valued partners. Your investment in this mission is directly advancing theological education across Africa, and we are deeply grateful for your continued prayers, encouragement, and contributions.
