Dhafer is a school principal in the public education system in Dammam, with more than 25 years of experience, 17 of them in leadership roles. He is responsible for school administration, academic quality, staff management and educational outcomes. When he considered an international MBA, one concern stood out: studying in English.
Full Arabic support
Dhafer chose the MBA at SWISS UMEF University because of AreteUp's Arabic-language support for Arabic-speaking professionals. It includes:
- Arabic academic and administrative support
- Arabic guidance on the learning platform and course navigation
- Arabic-speaking staff and TAs for assignments, schedules and requirements
Focused on leadership
With Arabic support in place, Dhafer can focus on management and leadership concepts for education institutions, strategic thinking for school governance and public-sector leadership, and applying business frameworks to real challenges in the education system.
“Language was my biggest concern before starting the MBA. With AreteUp's Arabic support, I was able to study confidently and focus on leadership and management, not translation.”
