What We Do

Professional Development

In collaboration with our partners, we offer trainings, certifications, and workshops to enhance the skills of orthopedic technologists, prosthetists, and orthotists across Kenya. We also participate fully in the development of orthopedic technology, prosthetics, orthotics, and other rehab-related curricula to ensure that our professionals have top skills and knowledge for the Kenyan and regional population.
