About East African Institute of Homecare Management

The East African Institute of Homecare Management (EAIHM) opened its doors for learning in April 2011. We are located in Githurai 45 immediately after the Railway crossing on your way to Progressive. The Institute is spacious as it lies on one acre of land which provides a conducive environment for learning and recreation. We have a team of qualified, professional, and experienced lecturers and support staff who are always on hand to give training and guidance on their areas of expertise.  Among the Curricula being offered is a unique one developed by the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development which is aimed at creating professionals in Homecare Management and the wider Hospitality industry for the East African community and beyond. Since its inception, the Institute has expanded beyond Hospitality to include other courses i.e. Catering, Hairdressing and Beauty, Fashion and Design, and ICT.

Since its inception, the Institute has partnered with NGOs to tailor-make courses for specialized groups i.e out-of-school youths, women, girls, refugees, and victims.

East African Institute of Homecare Management offers a holistic approach to learning.  Students benefit from training in their specific courses as well training in cross-cutting areas such as Life skills training to empower them to deal with everyday situations.  Other support areas covered include Communication skills and Labour Relations.  As part of their course, all students MUST undertake industrial attachment before they graduate.  The Institute also offers a wide range of short courses for those who wish to gain proficiency at the workplace. The mode of study is Regular, Evening, and Weekend Classes. Tailormade courses are also available on request.
