dc.description.abstractPurpose of the Study: Principals adopt a variety of instructional time management practices in an effort to ensure that technical training institutions achieve their educational goals. However, in Kiambu County, Kenya, students' completion rates in technical training institutions are low. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of principals' instructional time management on students' completion rates in public technical training institutions in Kiambu County, Kenya. Methodology: The study used a mixed methodology and concurrent triangulation research design. Qualitative data were analyzed thematically according to the objectives and presented in narrative form. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics such as frequencies and percentages, as well as inferentially using Pearson's product-moment correlation analysis with the help of Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS) and presented in tables. Findings: The study found that dropout rates among students in public technical training institutions have been high, leading to fluctuating students' completion rates. This is despite the principals' management of instructional time. Recommendations: The study recommends that principals should ensure that the time intervals specified in the timetables are used for quality teaching, not just for checking the times of arrival and departure from class. The Ministry of Education should also develop a policy that requires principals to undergo training on how to effectively manage instructional time.en_US
