A wave of pride and inspiration swept through North Coast Medical Training College (NCMTC) as the institution celebrated its 17th Graduation Ceremony at the Main Campus in Bomani, Kilifi County. The event brought together families, faculty, partners, and well-wishers to honor the academic and personal achievements of the graduating class of 2025.

The day was made even more special with the presence of the Honorable Mr. Kinoti Bonface Gatobu, Director of the Equity Group Foundation, who graced the occasion as Chief Guest. In his keynote address, Mr. Gatobu commended the graduates for their resilience, discipline, and dedication. He emphasized the vital role they will play in transforming healthcare delivery across Kenya and beyond.

Among the day’s most moving moments was the recognition of graduates whose education was made possible through the support of partners like the Community Health Promotion Fund (CHPF).
