A craft certificate-level course for laboratory assistants and technicians in schools, colleges, hospitals, industry and research institutions. Module I builds the fundamentals: laboratory safety, chemical hazards and GHS labels, waste disposal, glassware and equipment, measurement and errors, preparing solutions, and basic chemistry, physics and biology techniques. Module II moves to applied and supervisory work: titration and gravimetry, microbiology and aseptic technique, instruments such as pH meters, colorimeters, centrifuges and balances, stores management, quality assurance, record keeping and running a laboratory. Worked calculations appear throughout. The course covers the classroom theory of science laboratory technology; practical skills need supervised laboratory practice, and national examinations (KNEC) are registered and taken separately.
