Dar es Salaam Institute of Technology Details
Dar es Salaam Institute of Technology (DIT) is located in the Dar es Salaam city centre, at the junction of Morogoro Road and Bibi Titi Mohamed Road. Historically, DIT was established in 1997 by the Act of Parliament, "the DIT Act No.6 of 1997" to replace the Dar es Salaam Technical College, which had a long history of technical training in Tanzania. This history dates back to 1957 when its predecessor; the Dar es Salaam Technical Institute was established with the main task of providing vocational training in the country. The Institute later expanded its scope to offer technical secondary school courses and training for Technical Assistants before it was upgraded in 1962 to become the Dar es Salaam Technical College (DTC), the first formal technical training institution in the country.DIT is fully accredited by the National Council for Technical Education (NACTE) to run and grant awards to successful candidates as per the institute's and NACTE's regulations. Awards offered are National Technical Award Level (NTA) 4 – 6 (Ordinary Diploma Programmes), 7 – 8 (Bachelor Degree Programmes) and NTA 9 (Master Degree Programmes).
