The Ministry of Education has invited applications from trained but jobless early learning education graduates for recruitment as intern teachers.
Public Service Commission chief executive Simon Rotich said on Tuesday 1000 vacancies are available under the Digital Literacy Programme (DLP) in the State Department for Early Learning and Basic Education.
“Successful applicants will be appointed and deployed to schools where, in addition to acquiring practical skills and knowledge, the interns will be a vital support for the DLP,” Rotich said.
Successful applicants will be retained in the schools they will be deployed to on a 12-month contract.
“The interns will be paid a stipend by the State department, at a rate as determined by the Public Service Commission,” Rotich said.
He said successful applicants will be awarded certificates at the end of the 12 month internship period.
Eligible applicants must have graduated not earlier than 2018 and be holders of a Bachelor’s degree in Education with a specialty in Information Communication Technology (ICT).
Holders of a Bachelor’s degree in ICT or Diploma in ICT or ICT Integration in Education are also eligible to apply.
Additionally, interested applicants must be knowledgeable in networking and infrastructure, information security, applications development and projects management.
They must also be able to integrate with Education in terms of E-learning and content development.
Rotich said August 9, 2022 is the application deadline and all applications must be done online via www.publicservice.go.ke or www.psckjobs.go.ke.
