You're due for WBL in January 2026 and have no idea where to start. 

To identify some organizations that you can work for, login in to the Strathmore University Attachment System  and check under Accepted Organizations and specifically WBL. Note that you can filter by region. Once you've identified the company, go to their career page or contact us page - reach out to find out where to send your application.

Due to the Data Protection Act, we are unable to share the contact details of the previous host supervisors.

Now that you have the list, 

  • Google is your friend - search for the company online for the contact details.
  • Make contact - call, introduce yourself, the course you're studying and find out where to share your application for an industrial attachment opportunity between January and March 2026.
  • Share your CV and cover letter or email message [intro, message, conclusion] see example below.
