As chairman of Emirates Group, I am delighted to provide this foreword.The growth and success of the UAE and especially Dubai, owes much to its investment in technology, commerce and its people.

Dubai’s commitment to training is considerable and the establishment of the College in 1991 demonstrates our belief that the development of human resources is one of the finest investments any organisation can make.

Dubai’s position makes it an ideal location, with excellent air links to Europe, Asia and the Middle East. Those of you who are familiar with Dubai need no further introduction and those of you who are arriving for the first time will experience a flourishing modern city with an outstanding commercial reputation, supported by first class hotels and leisure facilities.To acquaintances and new friends, we say Ahlan Wasahlan and welcome to Dubai.

Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum
