International Education Show 2017

UAE is the fourth most attractive education destination in the world for students looking to pursue their studies abroad. The International Education Show recorded more than 30 percent growth in visitor turnout for its 12th edition in 2015. Last year, the show once again saw a 30 percent growth in visitor turnout, and this clearly indicates the growth appeal of the show and the growing demand for higher education in the region.

This year's edition of the show is set to offer instant access to students from all educational institutions within the region and the world. Last year, the show became a gathering point for the academic community in the region, and all stakeholders in the country's higher education sector.

Further, the Expo Centre Sharjah recently had a tie up with AFAIRS Exhibitions and Media in India, to bring the Great India Education Fair to the UAE, which also paid rich dividends.

This International Education Show reflects the importance that the government attaches to higher education, and the UAE Ministry of Education will continue its partnership with Expo Centre Sharjah in organizing the International Education Show.

Among the visitors to the show are final year high school students, undergraduate and post-graduate students, professionals seeking post graduate or training courses, ministry and public sector personnel, management training centers, higher education consultants and advisors, academic staff and other educational professionals, researchers, teachers, students' parents, local institutes seeking tie-up overseas.
