TIIB certificate. Not a Pearson award.

Events are a logistics job with a creative brief on top. Four months on design, budgets, vendors, timelines and client handling, plus the thing nobody teaches: what to do at 6pm when the flowers have not arrived.

Why here

  • An approved Pearson centre

    TIIB is approved to deliver and assess Pearson's Higher Nationals in Dubai Knowledge Park. This programme is our own, so it carries a TIIB certificate rather than a Pearson award.

  • 35+ founders teach here

    People who run companies now, in the room, not teachers who ran one years ago.

  • 22+ companies take our students

    That is the network the careers team introduces students into, whatever they are studying.
