This article looks into courses offered at KMTC Bondo Campus. Located along Bondo-Siaya Road, the Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) Bondo Campus was established in March 2012 in Bondo town, Siaya County.
The campus initially commenced operations at the former Masita Technical Training Center, where it exclusively offered the Certificate in Health Records and Information Technology program. However, the increasing demand for clinical courses prompted the Sub-County Health Committee to allocate a new site near Bondo Sub-County Hospital. As a result, the main Campus was established there.
Currently, KMTC Bondo Campus offers 5 courses to students who want to pursue a career in the medical field.
