State agencies that fund students in universities and colleges have painted a picture of how the merged funding body proposed by President William Ruto should look like.
Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) and the Universities Fund (UF) in two separate reports have recommended new governance structures for the merged funding body and also proposed their staff are retained under the new outfit. They have also proposed legislative changes that should be effected and suggested a number of names that can be adopted for the new merged body.
The details are contained in reports by HELB and UF presented to Presidential Working Party on Education Reforms. Charles Ringera and Geoffrey Monari are the present chief executives of HELB and UF respectively.
