Certificate in Food Science and Processing Technology (Module I)

Module I of the Certificate in Food Science and Processing Technology introduces the fundamentals of food science at KNEC Craft Certificate level, for school leavers, food handlers and aspiring small-scale processors. You study the Kenyan food industry, food chemistry and nutrients, food microbiology, hygiene and sanitation, workshop safety and the principles of preservation, then apply them to cereals, fruits and vegetables, milk, meat and fish, before covering packaging basics and food laws and standards. Module II builds on this foundation with applied processing and quality management. The course covers the classroom theory only; practical skills need supervised laboratory and processing-workshop practice, and KNEC examinations are registered and taken separately.
