The careers
almanac for Kenya.

Every course, career and institution in the country, recorded the same way and measured against the same question: how much of this can a machine already do?

Why it exists

Better choices start with better information.

Most people choose a course on reputation and hearsay, because until now there was very little else to choose on. The same decision made against published fees, entry marks, hiring signals and an honest read on automation is a different decision, and this is 15 fields of study and institutions in all 47 counties, recorded the same way.

What is inside

Four indexes, one map.

Institutions, the programmes they run, the careers those programmes lead to, and how each of them is holding up. Linked, so the walk works from either end.

What is happening

It is not the job. It is the first rung.

Read across 3,562 careers that carry a pay projection, senior pay is expected to rise 36% by 2030 while entry pay rises 27%. The work is not vanishing. The junior end of it is thinning, which is a different problem and needs a different answer.

2024entry to senior: 4.3x 4.6x2030

Monthly pay in Kenyan shillings, rounded to the nearest thousand. The shaded band is the distance between entry and senior pay, which is the part that is changing. These are projections, not observations.

The method

No quiz. No horoscope.

Fees, entry marks, intakes and accreditation are recorded from what the institution publishes. The exposure rating is different and is labelled as such wherever it appears: it is derived from published automation research applied to the tasks recorded for each role, and every record shows the method and the sources it rests on.

    From either end

    A programme records where it leads. A career records what gets you there. The index is linked both ways, so it does not matter which one you already know.

    The exposure rating

    Every career carries a 0 to 100 score, and every record shows the working: the tasks it was built from, the six things it was scored on, and the studies behind it.

  3. 03Cost

    What it actually takes

    Entry marks, tuition, intake months and duration, recorded per institution rather than averaged into a figure nobody can act on.
