Why CADD International
A specialist brand, not a general coaching centre.
We teach one thing, design and construction technology, and we teach it to working engineers and architects. That focus is what you license.
Dubai-proven model
Built and refined in one of the most competitive construction markets in the world, with a KHDA-approved institute in Business Bay.
Two revenue engines
Individual learners fill your classrooms. Corporate batches, with syllabi customised to each client, fill your order book.
BIM-first curriculum
Role-based BIM tracks for coordinators, managers, architects, MEP and infrastructure teams, plus ISO 19650 standards training.
Our own learning platform
Courseware, assessments, the CADD International app and in-house reference books for CAD, BIM and PPM come with the licence.
Verifiable certificates
Every graduate receives a certificate that employers can verify online and that learners can share on LinkedIn.
Reputation you inherit
A 4.8 rating across more than 500 Google reviews, and a client list that opens doors with contractors and consultants.
Territories now open
Three regions. One exclusive partner per territory.
Wherever buildings and infrastructure are being designed, firms need people who can model them. We are appointing partners city by city.

Questions
Before you enquire
Is my territory exclusive?
Yes. Each agreement defines a city, district or country in which we appoint no other partner.
Do I need a technical background?
No. You hire trainers and we certify them. Business and local-market skills matter more.
Who issues the certificates?
CADD International issues them centrally after your centre's assessment, so every certificate is verifiable online.
Can courses be taught in the local language?
Courseware is in English. Delivery in a local language is agreed territory by territory.
How long does it take to open?
It depends on your premises and local licensing. We share a realistic timeline during the discovery call.
Who buys the software licences?
The centre does. We advise on the right educational or commercial licences for your course mix.
