Innoventures Education welcomed the Study Dubai higher education roadshow to its schools in Dubai, strengthening school-to-university pathways and enabling meaningful engagement across multiple campuses.
The two-day roadshow, facilitated by Dubai’s Knowledge and Human Development Authority, brought together students, parents, educators, counsellors, and representatives from 13 UAE-based universities, creating a dynamic platform for exploration, dialogue, and informed decision-making around higher education and future career pathways. Hosted at Collegiate International School and Raffles World Academy, the initiative was designed to bridge the gap between school and university by bringing higher education directly into school communities.
Participating universities represented a broad range of academic disciplines, including business, engineering, technology, creative arts, and health sciences, with programmes aligned to emerging workforce needs. Students and families engaged directly with admissions teams to discuss entry requirements, scholarships, internships, and progression routes, gaining greater clarity on post-school options, while parents and guardians played an active role in supporting informed academic and career decisions.
Dr Wafi Dawood, CEO of the Strategic Development Sector at KHDA, added: “Dubai’s higher education sector offers students access to world-class programmes delivered by international branch campuses from some of the world’s leading universities. The Study Dubai initiative helps students and families understand the breadth of globally recognised programmes available in the emirate, enabling learners to continue their higher education in Dubai in ways that align with their goals and aspirations, support talent retention, and contribute meaningfully to the city’s future economy and growth, in line with D33 and the Education 33 Strategy.”
Commenting on the initiative, Poonam Bhojani, CEO of Innoventures Education, said:
“Guiding students towards the right university pathway is a responsibility we take seriously. With more than 20 years of educational excellence, Innoventures Education is committed to ensuring students and families understand the breadth and quality of top universities available here in the UAE, empowering them to make confident, well-informed choices for their future.”
The roadshow supported greater alignment between schools and universities by expanding student access to information, guidance, and choice at a critical decision-making stage. By hosting the initiative across its campuses, Innoventures Education reinforced its commitment to strengthening pathways from school to university, student access, exposure, and choice, and reflected the group’s continued focus on expanding meaningful student opportunities as a key strategic priority across its schools.
