Collaborations

KKCE has always been a firm believer in collaborating with different institutions – at local, national, and international levels as well as works on creating linkages. Over the past few years, the institution has collaborated for diverse areas, in some cases through MoUs. Some of our significant collaborations are as follows:

  • Workshops have taken for KKCE faculty and students by faculty from Gordon Academic College of Education, Haifa, Israel
