A case of legal education and training in Kenya Sitati, Emmily Mugasia Regulatory body, legal education and training, Quality assurance, legal framewor Journal Article Kenya just like other countries in the world has to struggle with the high demand for quality education in general and legal education in specific. More institutions of higher learning are seeking accreditation from the accreditation body (Council of Legal Education) to offer legal education yet matters of quality are least addressed. The regulatory framework of legal education in Kenya has streamlined provision of legal education and training. Today, Kenya prides herself with over 60 institutions of higher learning of which 10 are licensed to offer legal education and training. Although these institutions are still fewer in terms of meeting the demand for legal education and training, quality has been the driving force behind the licensing of legal education and training institutions. A recent audit of all universities in Kenya revealed shortfalls ininternal quality assurance policies, systems and mechanisms. This paper will discuss the growth higher education in Kenya with special emphasis to legal education and the mechanisms used in enhancing quality in legal education. In addition, the paper will explore progress made by the regulatory body in enhancing quality in legal education. 2023-06-27T06:24:54Z 2023-06-27T06:24:54Z 2017-06 Article Sitati, E. M. (2017).
