How long does it take to get a TSC certificate?
The process of obtaining a TSC certificate typically takes around 30 days. After submitting the required documents and completing the registration process, the Commission will process the certificate and inform the applicant of the outcome within this timeframe.
The certificate of registration bearing a TSC number is usually issued within this period to a teacher who meets the requirements.
Note that the TSC certificate is a crucial document for teachers in Kenya, as it is required for employment and promotion opportunities.
