KISWATE NATIONAL TRANSMISSION CENTER
KIISWATE Digital Academy under the leadership of Data Scientist and Digital Educator Pius Odhiambo is in conversation with various stakeholders in tbe education sector in the republic of Kenya to establish a national transmission center where schools facing shortages of teachers can login and have access to Digital lessons for free.
In October 2025 before the beginning of national exams, KISWATE Digital Academy under their Global Principal Michael Ahendera carried out a very successful dry run. KISWATE also trained over 30 senior school teachers for free to become digital educators.
The following are KISWATE Certified Digital Educators. Welcome to their lessons and with looming teachers shortages these teachers need to be empowered by the Ministry of Education or Teachers Sdrvice Commission of Kenya from the comfort of their current station to teach in multiple schools to reduce teachers shortages in the country.
With one digital lab and 3 digital classrooms and KISWATE free arrays of technology the government only needs kshs. 6 million to establish a national transmission center for a backup teaching system to reduce teachdfs shortages by 30% and a further 50% by using A / B shift system.
