Through prudent and visionary leadership and strong partnerships, RVIBS has established six campuses namely Nakuru campus (Main), Gilgil campus and Njoro campus. It is within our strategic plan to increase our presence in Kenya by establishing more campuses. In ten years’, time we endeavor to be in at least twenty-seven counties in Kenya. This is designed to make us more accessible to learners from all over Kenya.
To give it an international outlook and give our students and staff international experience, RVIBS has established relationships with international bodies and institutions. To name just but a few NOREC through the Norwegian government has helped in international trainer exchange programs which have highly impacted our trainer’s skills and enabled our students to experience international trainers.
