How do I register for a course at Pebbles Institute?

Registering is simple. Browse our training catalog, select your desired course, and click the "Book to Register" button. Fill out the brief registration form with your details, and a training coordinator will contact you within 24 hours to provide the admission letter and payment details.

Our curriculum is explicitly designed around actionable, real-world case studies and frameworks (such as IPSAS, GFS, and climate-smart agriculture models). Rather than relying purely on academic lectures, our programs utilize quantitative tools, interactive exercises, and strategic analytics to ensure immediate workplace application.

While the majority of our intensive professional programs are structured for high-engagement, on-site delivery, we offer select courses in a virtual or hybrid format. If your organization requires online delivery for a specific module, please indicate this during your booking inquiry.

Our primary residential and corporate training programs are hosted in premium, fully equipped conference facilities in Nairobi, Kenya. We also coordinate regional and international training locations depending on the specific cohort and organizational requirements. Exact venue details are communicated in your admission letter.

Payments can be made via bank transfer or bank draft payable to PB Institute of Research and Technology. For corporate-sponsored participants, a formal undertaking/Local Purchase Order (LPO) from the employer is required to secure a slot before the training commencement date.

If you are unable to attend, you must notify us in writing at least 7 days before the course start date. You may choose to nominate a qualified substitute colleague at no additional cost or defer your enrolment to the next scheduled cohort for that program.
