About Us
Our Story
Welcome to Ntinda Vocational Training Institute (NTVTI), a cutting-edge public institution under the Ministry of Education and Sports, established through a collaboration between the Governments of South Korea and Uganda. Our institute is designed for job seekers, the unemployed, the youth, and incumbent workers who are passionate about gaining practical skills that will enable them to excel in their respective careers.
Strategically located in Ntinda, a suburb just 3 km east of Kampala, our institute sits next to one of Kampala’s bustling industrial zones, making it an ideal hub for trainees to interact with the world of work that’s relevant to their field. Equipped with modern training equipment and machinery recently procured as part of a government grant from the Korean International Cooperation Agency (KOICA).
We pride ourselves on providing National Certificate Courses and Specialized Skills Short Courses that equip youth with the skills they need to engage in productive work, whether by getting employed or creating their own jobs, hence reducing unemployment. Our main focus is on providing high-end training in automotive mechanics, plumbing, welding, electricity, fashion design, and more. We have expertise in covering most of the industry-demanded skills.
Our journey began in 2014 with a ground-breaking ceremony followed by a contract with UNOPS for construction. In December 2015, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with KOICA_UNOPS for construction, and in November 2016, we held a construction commencement meeting. June 2017 saw the dispatch of Korean experts to MoES to develop guidelines on management, while September saw us conduct a training program in Korea regarding management and instructor education. In March 2018, we completed the construction of Ntinda VTI and held a keys handover ceremony to MoES with UNOPS. That same year, we received approval of Staff structure for Ntinda VTI from the government.
At NTVTI, we are committed to innovation and excellence in all that we do, providing high-quality training and solutions for our trainees and clients alike.
