I recently completed my Level 4 Certificate in Events from Dubai College of Tourism. This is a vocational college that offers excellent practical exposure for students of all ages who want to enter the industry. Most of the staff come from the industry, bringing real-world experience, and they are incredibly friendly and approachable. The campus is cozy creating a warm and supportive learning environment. We had numerous opportunities to network with professionals from the industry during site visits. The academic director and team was very hands-on, They always took our feedback seriously, acted on it quickly, and supported us throughout our time at the college. The teachers were compassionate, and the overall structure of the course, along with the syllabus we followed, prepared us really well for working in Dubai’s fast paced industry. At the end of the year, the college made sure we were all ready for the real world and connected us with exciting opportunities in some of the top, fast-paced brands across Dubai.
