What L&D teams ask us first
How do I choose the best corporate training company in Dubai or the UAE?
Check five things. Regulatory approval: in Dubai, training providers should be approved by KHDA, the Government of Dubai’s education authority. Recognised certificates: CPD accreditation and professional-body alignment (IMA for CMA, CIPS for procurement, EC-Council for cybersecurity) mean the certificate carries weight outside your company. Trainers who practise what they teach. Genuine customisation to your sector and workflows rather than a catalogue course. And measurement: pre- and post-training assessment with a written outcome report. London International meets all five, and adds one accountable team across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh and London.
How much does corporate training cost in Dubai and the UAE?
Corporate programmes are priced per cohort and per day, or per programme for multi-week academies. The cost depends on duration, the depth of customisation, on-site or live-online delivery, the number of participants and whether a professional certification exam is included. In-house delivery is usually more economical than sending ten or more people to open courses, because the fee covers the cohort rather than each seat. Tell us your objectives and team size and we send a tailored outline, delivery options and pricing within one business day.
Is London International a KHDA-approved training provider?
Yes. Our Dubai training is approved by KHDA (Knowledge and Human Development Authority), and our certificates are CPD-UK accredited. We are also a CIPS Approved Centre for procurement qualifications, our finance institute has been an IMA-approved CMA training centre since 2013, and we deliver EC-Council cybersecurity programmes through a partnership announced in 2023.
Do you deliver corporate training in Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia as well as Dubai?
Yes. We have offices in Dubai (headquarters), Abu Dhabi and Riyadh, and deliver on-site at client premises across the UAE and Saudi Arabia, live online for distributed teams, or blended. Saudi programmes can be delivered in Arabic, in line with Vision-2030 workforce objectives.
Can you deliver training in Arabic?
Yes. We deliver in English and Arabic, with bilingual materials for UAE and Saudi teams. Tell us the language mix of your cohort during scoping and we assign trainers accordingly.
What is the minimum group size for an in-house programme?
Most in-house cohorts run with eight to twenty-five participants, which keeps delivery practical and discussion-led. Larger workforces are served through multi-cohort academies under the same standard, and individuals can join the open-enrolment programmes run by our specialist institutes.
How quickly can a programme start?
We send a proposal within one business day of your enquiry. A bespoke programme typically moves from scoping to first delivery in two to four weeks, depending on the degree of customisation and your cohort scheduling. Open-enrolment professional courses run on published intake dates.
Can the content be customised to our industry?
Yes. Curriculum, exercises, case studies and assessments are drawn from your sector and your team’s real workflows. We regularly design for banking and finance, government, construction and engineering, healthcare, logistics, and technology and energy organisations.
Can training be delivered at our own premises?
Yes. On-site delivery is available anywhere in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, scheduled around your operating hours, including weekend and shift cohorts. Teams can also attend at our Jumeirah Lakes Towers training centre in Dubai or join live online.
Can you run professional certifications such as CMA, CIPS, PMP or CEH for a corporate group?
Yes. Our specialist institutes run closed corporate cohorts for CMA, ACCA preparation, CIPS Levels 2–6, PMP preparation, CHRMP, Lean Six Sigma and EC-Council certifications such as CEH, alongside bespoke non-certification programmes.
