Baraton College is a private training college associated with Baraton in Kenya. It has historically been described as Baraton Teachers Training College, but its current website uses the broader name Baraton College and lists programmes in teacher education, animal health, agriculture, business, theology and other fields. This guide replaces the narrow, outdated 2016 course list with current application and accreditation guidance.

Teacher training at Baraton College
The college’s more recent published programmes include teacher-education options. Individual programmes have different entry requirements, duration, teaching-subject conditions and examination bodies. Examples appearing in the college’s current programme information include:
- Diploma in Primary Teacher Education (DPTE)
- Diploma in Early Childhood Teacher Education (DECTE)
- Diploma in Secondary Teacher Education (DSTE)
- Diploma in Technical Teacher Education (DTTE)
- Teacher professional development, education upgrading and related study pathways, subject to current intake availability
The college’s programme information lists a three-year duration for several diploma teacher-education options, but applicants should confirm the curriculum and whether the programme and intake are approved by the relevant authorities. The former P1 route mentioned in the 2016 article must not be assumed to be a current direct-entry programme.
Other courses and university collaborations
Baraton College also advertises TVET diplomas and certificates in animal health and production, dairy and poultry, business management, information technology, community health, records management and other areas. Some bachelor’s, master’s and postgraduate options on its website are expressly described as collaborations with other universities, including The East Africa University and University of South Africa.
Important: A TVETA licence for Baraton College does not mean that Baraton College independently awards university degrees or that all professionally regulated courses are automatically approved. Before enrolling, ask who awards the qualification, whether the specific programme and location have the required accreditation and which institution will issue the final certificate.
