Canadian University Dubai earns accreditation from KSA Ministry of Education

Dubai, UAE: Canadian University Dubai (CUD) has secured formal accreditation for its degree programs from the Ministry of Education in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, building on its existing portfolio of international academic credentials.

The accreditation affirms that CUD programs align with the Ministry’s standards and requirements for academic equivalency. As an accredited institution, students graduating from any bachelor’s or master’s degree program at CUD will be able to have their degrees recognized in the Kingdom. This recognition will be hugely beneficial for fresh graduates entering the KSA job market as well as working professionals looking to advance their career in their home nation.

Speaking about the achievement, CUD Chancellor, Mr. Buti Saeed Al Ghandi, said “It is a privilege for the University to achieve this recognition at a time when the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is accelerating strategic initiatives to diversify its economy as it builds towards Vision 2030. We thank the Ministry for its support in this process and look forward to adding value to its vision, by contributing to the education and professional development of Saudi nationals.”

CUD President and Vice Chancellor, Prof. Karim Chelli, remarked, “This is an important milestone in the University’s agenda to broaden our international collaborations
