Kenya Medical Training College has finally introduced a Diploma course in Mortuary Science.
The course’s training will take three years. However, those already with a certificate in the same course from other reputable institutions will join in year two.
The courses will kick start in March 2023. Kenyans have hilariously taken to social media to discuss the course with many stating they would never want such a job.
