Kenya Utalii College remains the best hospitality school south of the Sahara. The dedication of staff and students to professional excellence has never waned, about 5 decades after the Hotel Training School was put up. The support the institution has received from Kenyan Government and the hospitality industry players is a clear indicator of the key role the institution plays in capacity building for Hospitality and Tourism in Kenya, and ultimately positioning of Kenya as a brand internationally.
The quality of training at Kenya Utalii College has seen the College receive global recognition as a center of excellence for United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) and a member of EUHOFA group of global leading hospitals schools. In addition, the College hosts the secretariat of Association of Hospitality and Tourism Schools of Africa (AHTSA). Such is the seal approval for the training offered by KUC.
