There are 3.33 million residents in Dubai belonging to all age ranges, and so there is always a steady demand for quality education. Strong demand can be witnessed across the elementary school, middle school, and the high school levels. There is also some exceptionally strong demand for college-level higher education. You will find that Bachelor\u2019s degree level courses are just as in demand as are Master\u2019s degree level courses.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

And the demand comes not only from prospective students wanting to study full-time, but also working executives who are looking to up skill themselves. Both these categories of prospective students are looking for high quality educational service providers. There are already some reputed educational service providers in Dubai, and there is demand for even more to cater to the growing population of Dubai. Someone with experience in matters of company setup in UAE<\/a> can provide you with a Feasibility Study.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

When establishing an educational institution in Dubai, it is important to secure the approval of the Knowledge and Human Development Authority or KHDA. The Knowledge and Human Development Authority oversees childhood education, higher education, and training institutes in the emirate of Dubai. It was established in 2006, and seeks to ensure that quality is maintained at all educational institutions at all levels. Its aim is to see to it that Dubai becomes at par with the best in the world.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

How to Register an Educational Institution in Dubai<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The first step involves determining the type of education and the location. For instance, if you were planning to open an elementary school, it is expected that your school will have playgrounds, classrooms for the students, staff rooms for the elementary school teachers, and adequate parking for school buses. It should ideally be located in a quiet place or residential neighborhood, so that there is no or little risk to students who may attempt to cross the road in front of the school.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The same would be applicable if your school was a K-12 education institution that is it provided classes from kindergarten to the 12th grade. Only more would be expected, such as bigger playgrounds, more infrastructure such as science laboratories and an extensive library, an increased number of staff rooms, a fleet of school buses, and enough parking in front of or inside the school for all the school buses and parents who may come to drop off and\/or pick up their wards from school.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

To get a Private School Permit, you need to submit a copy of your Academic Plan \/ Calendar. You will also need to provide a copy of the Lease Agreement in case you plan to rent a school building or multiple school buildings at the same location. If you have constructed your school building, you will need to attach a copy of the Land Deed. A copy of the Completion Certificate issued by the Dubai Municipality or the Free Zone Authority (in case it is in a free zone) will also need to be furnished.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

When it comes to higher education or training, you can choose to open your educational institution in the city itself. There are several free zones located right in the heart of the city that can provide you with the necessary infrastructure, so that you do not have to construct your own buildings. You could rent a semi-furnished office space and furnish it accordingly so that it becomes a classroom. You could set up multiple classrooms, lecture halls, and faculty offices this way. There is no need to have your own fleet of buses.<\/p>

You need a detailed business plan that takes care of all these. When applying for approval from the Knowledge and Human Development Authority, your plan needs to be as detailed as possible. It must mention not only how you plan to structure your operations, but also details of the staff you plan to hire, including their educational qualifications. Your application to the Knowledge and Human Development Authority must also contain how your educational institution is expected to add value.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The approval process for an institution of higher education involves meeting with officials from the Ministry of Education. They will study the Business Plan and see if the space leased meets the requirements for the educational programs offered. Any changes that need to be made will be outlined in the Evaluation Report. The promoters of the college or university can then make these changes, following which a Letter of Recommendation will be issued for grant of a Business License.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
