Nansomba Community Technical College

Nansomba Community Technical College is a government community technical college at Nansomba in Mulanje District, in Malawi's Southern Region. It comes under the Ministry of Labour, which is responsible for government technical colleges. The Ministry of Labour's Directorate of Technical and Vocational Training listed "Nansomba in Mulanje" among ten community technical colleges that the ministry planned to open in January 2022. The ministry's online application platform for government technical colleges, TCRIS, lists the college in the Southern Region and gives its programmes as: - bricklaying - carpentry and joinery - fabrication and welding - plumbing - tailoring and fashion design The same portal gives a general entry requirement, for its 2027 intake, of an MSCE with at least six credits including English and Mathematics, and a minimum age of 16. Community technical colleges were introduced through the ministry's reforms of technical and vocational training, together with community skills development centres, as an addition to the national technical colleges. The reforms also devolved governance to boards and management committees at college level. The directorate's stated mandate is to develop and interpret technical and vocational training policy. Mulanje District covers 2,056 square kilometres and had 428,322 inhabitants at the 2018 census. It is known for its tea-growing industry and for Mount Mulanje, whose Sapitwa Peak, at 3,002 metres, is the highest point in Malawi. Applications are made through the Ministry of Labour's TCRIS portal at tcris.labour.gov.mw. The college has not published its own telephone number or fees online.
