Dear Prospective Students,

It is my distinct pleasure as Principal to share this information on the Technical College with you.

The aim of the College has always been to provide an adequately skilled manpower having the appropriate knowledge, skills and attitude for industry, commerce and the public sector.

Students become representatives of the College and all that it symbolises. The achievements of the institution will be borne out in your conduct and performance during the period of training for the world of work.

The success of the College will be measured by the quality of its graduates – graduates who are well trained and ready for the world of work. This is what we hope to achieve through you.

God bless you and I look forward to us working together.
