Welcome to the SOCAITE
The Songea Catholic Institute of Technical Education abbreviated as SOCAITE, located within Songea Municipality, Ruvuma region, has its roots originating in February 2019 when the Board of Trustees of the Catholic Universities in Tanzania directed the then Archbishop James University College (a Constituent College of the St. Augustine University of Tanzania)
to establish a technical Institution in Songea to offer non-degree programmes. The Institute is fully registered by the NACTVET (REG/BTP/111) and has one campus strategically located in Songea Municipality in Ruvuma to be close to the Roman Catholic Cathedral in Songea. The rationale for the establishment of SOCAITE was to maintain the vision of the Catholic Church of Tanzania to bring higher technical education services close to the people that has been its tradition globally, regionally and locally.
