1) Welcome to Tusome.com
The Internet has become a major part of our everyday lives. Thousands of useful products and services are offered on the Internet. People in need of the products and services can conveniently find out about them on the Internet.
In Kenya today, a large number of people are spending time on the Internet seeking information. Many of these people are interested in pursuing education at various levels. Owen Technologies Limited has therefore set up Tusome.com. "Tusome" is the Swahili word for "Let us study" or "Let us get educated."

2) What is the purpose of Tusome.com?
The purpose of Tusome.com is to bridge the gap between the education service providers in Kenya and the vast number of seekers. Tusome.com therefore lists the schools, colleges, trainers and other educational opportunities in Kenya.
This is an easy and affordable way for institutions, private tutors, educational consultants, trainers and other service providers to be on the Internet and to advertise themselves effectively, without having to invest heavily financially, in skills, personnel or time.
Institutions need not spend a lot of money advertising to everyone, but can focus their advertising on their target market - those actually interested in receiving training.

Tusome.com is the first stop and probably the only stop for anyone in Kenya seeking education opportunities.
3) How can I Search Tusome.com?
On the Home Page, you can search for institutions in three ways:
1)
You may view a listing of the Featured Institutions on the web site.
2) You can choose to view public or private primary, secondary or tertiary institutions, or
3) You can also Search for an institution by Name, Courses Offered or Town.

4) What is a Basic Listing Entry?
A basic listing entry is brief information giving the Name, Location, Address, Telephone Numbers, Courses Offered and Town of each institution. Also a link to the school’s web site or dedicated web page is provided.
Below is an example of a basic listing entry.
