    Abstract
    Education reforms have historically played a critical role in shaping the trajectory of technology education. This study investigated the extent to which curriculum adjustments, policy frameworks, and pedagogical innovations have influenced the development of technology education in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions. A mixed-methods approach was employed, collecting data from 120 instructors and 300 trainees across five TVET institutions in Nairobi County. Quantitative analysis involved descriptive statistics and multiple regression, while qualitative insights were drawn from semi-structured interviews with administrators. Results revealed that education reforms significantly influence technology education (β = 0.642, R² = 0.401, p < .001), with curriculum modernization and policy implementation emerging as the most impactful dimensions. The findings conclude that reforms act as both drivers and enablers of technological integration, enhancing relevance, innovation, and adaptability of technology education. Recommendations include aligning reforms with industry standards, strengthening policy monitoring, and embedding flexibility into curricula.
