Savannah Cement have renewed a joint commitment with the National Construction Authority (NCA) to improve construction standards in Kenya, according to Capital Business. The cement company will continue to provide training and development opportunities to those workers seeking NCA accreditation in the building and construction sector. Over the last five years, Savannah Cement have trained 10,000 masons.

"Recently, the two organisations agreed to have all masons trained by Savannah Cement issued with NCA accreditation cards and we are really humbled by this recognition since it reflects the quality of masons who graduate from our training programme," said Ronald Ndegwa, Savannah Cement's managing director.

The training scheme is a significant contribution towards the NCA’s commitment to train and accredit 300,000 masons annually.
