INTRODUCTION

Kenyans have a voracious appetite for education with thousands traveling overseas each year to universities and other institutes, while thousands more attend the country’s own rapidly advancing universities. Education & Career Fair'2009, Education & Training Show has become an established feature of Kenya's educational calendar, allowing educationalists to meet with potential students and their families or to acquaint themselves with very latest educational trends, services and equipment.

Kenyan in particular and East African, in general, have continued to regard education and training as a priority, allocating in excess of a quarter of it’s massive annual budget supporting this sector. Recently there has been particular emphasis on training and vocational guidance to create a more diverse career direction. This is to satisfy the Kenya's programme in developing an East African work force to meet the demands of the East Africa job market.

Traditionally, worldwide participation has always been a key factor in the success of any exhibition, participation by universities, educational institutes and training centers from various countries, either in country pavilions or individually, is one of it’s strong features and a major draw for both potential East African students and large local workforce.
