BACKGROUND Saint–Joseph Integrated Technical College formerly known as Nyamirambo School of Crafts[1] came into existence as a Training Centre in 1970 and started with 15 students. Its establishment was made possible by the joint efforts of the Josephite Brothers Congregation whose objective was a practical training in order to respond to growing needs of both the capital and the countryside, as the country needed average but fast technical progress. It was urgent to train qualified workers according to modern technical method instead of following the traditional on-the-job training method. In 1993, the School -then called InstitutLéon Paul Classe- adopted the A3 level to its program. The 1994 Genocide left the School ransacked but it reopened on 27/06/1997. On 25/06/1999 it was officially inaugurated by the then Minister of Education, Emmanuel MUDIDI and was recognized as a private School on 03/09/2000.

The Ninth General Chapter of the Josephite Brothers Congregation held in September 2001 decided that all Schools sponsored/managed by these Brothers must have Saint Joseph as patron saint; thus Nyamirambo School of Crafts (EMN) became Nyamirambo Saint–Joseph Technical School (ETSJ) since September 2002 and adopted A2 program in Public Works and Construction. • The School was officially approved for A1 program in April 2010 and thereby became Saint Joseph Integrated Technical College, SJITC. In April 2010, SJITC opened a department of Civil Engineering, whose first promotion will graduate in 2012. • Despite many challenges, Saint Joseph Integrated Technical College has made a significant progress and is today an essential partner of the Ministry of Education regarding technical options.
