About Educators Consultancy
Established in 2002, we believe in the importance of continuous training as a cornerstone of human development and institutional capacity building. In response to the overall development of the Arab countries in general and the Gulf in particular, our center has been established to meet the contemporary needs of institutions and individuals to develop knowledge, Behaviors, through the transfer of experiences and ideas the most modern in the world, and then distinguish individual and institutional performance in each field.
The name of the training center "Educators" was chosen for the expression of moral and educational commitment, and was true in the interests of institutions, individuals and the nation.
In the course of the ten years, we have built strategic partnerships and cooperation with the most training and human resources departments in important institutions in all the GCC countries and some Arab countries, where we have participated in the development and development of Over tens of thousands of participants.
The Center also managed to build cooperative relations with a number of international centers and universities in the field of training and human development, which reflected positively on the Center's status, making it one of the most important training centers in the Gulf region.
