The National Defence College, Kenya (NDCK), is a training facility for senior commanders in the Military of Kenya, including the army, navy, air force and special forces. Training is also availed to senior Kenyan civil servants and senior military officers from African countries and other continents.[1] LocationThe college is located in Karen, a suburb of Kenya's capital of Nairobi, approximately {{convert|19|km|mi}}, by road, west of Nairobi's central business district.[2] The coordinates of NDCK are:1°18'10.0"S, 36°42'00.0"E (Latitude:-1.3028; Longitude:36.7000).[3] HistoryThe college was established in 1992, to train senior Kenyan military officers in National Security Studies. Due to limited available training openings and the high cost of training in foreign military academies, the Government of Kenya established the NDCK. For the next five years, a panel of high-ranking military officers set up the college and structured the courses offered. In 1997, the college admitted its first class, and has graduated a class every year starting in 1998. The annual intake as at November 2014, is 40 participants. Beginning in 2002, the college, in collaboration with the University of Nairobi, awards the Diploma, Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts degrees in International Studies.[4] CoursesThe most popular course is the one year National Security Course, that lasts 45 weeks of study, with two breaks, each of 2 to 3 weeks duration. Other courses leading to the award of Diploma, BA and MA degrees in conjunction with Nairobi University, are also offered.
