The International Hotel and Tourism Institute (IHTI) provides professional hospitality and culinary training in Nairobi. Its current official website identifies its campus at Kyuna Crescent, Westlands, off Waiyaki Way, rather than the older Kileleshwa address in some historical college directories.

The institute offers a two-year BTEC Higher National Diploma in International Hospitality Management and a two-year BTEC Higher National Diploma in International Culinary Arts. One-year certificate programmes include Food and Beverage Operations and Front Office Operations. Short courses include cookery, pastry, events management, customer service, food and beverage service, and meat processing.
International Hotel and Tourism Institute intakes
Full-time student intakes are scheduled in January, May and September. Some shorter and part-time courses start at the beginning or middle of a month. Students should review the specific programme’s entry requirements and the institute’s latest prospectus before applying.
