Veranda Learning Solutions, a prominent player in the education sector, has announced its strategic entry into the Middle East through its flagship brand, J.K. Shah Classes. This expansion marks a significant milestone in Veranda Learning’s global strategy as it partners with Jumeira University Connect, the training arm of Jumeira University, to offer a Chartered Accountancy (CA) preparation course for students in the UAE.
J.K. Shah Classes have meticulously designed the newly-introduced CA course to meet the high standards set by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), Dubai’s educational regulatory body. The curriculum adheres to global best practices and aligns with the local cultural context, ensuring that students in the UAE receive a comprehensive and relevant education. This KHDA-approved program further emphasizes the commitment to maintaining the highest educational standards in the region.
Established in 1983, J.K. Shah Classes has been a leader in CA, CS, CMA, ACCA, and CFA coaching, producing over 2,000 all-India rankers and training nearly 100,000 students annually. This strong legacy provides a solid foundation as Veranda Learning enters the UAE market, where the CA preparation course is set to commence soon, with admissions opening in the coming weeks.
Dr. Mounir Dhibi, President of Jumeira University, expressed excitement about the collaboration, highlighting the synergy between J.K. Shah Classes’ rigorous standards and Jumeira University’s educational values. Mr. Suresh Kalpathi, Executive Director and Chairman of Veranda Learning, echoed this sentiment, noting that this partnership reflects Veranda’s commitment to providing high-quality education globally. He also hinted at future expansions, with robust plans to introduce a broader range of courses tailored to the unique needs of the UAE market, demonstrating our long-term commitment to the region. This partnership is expected to empower students in the region with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in their CA examinations and beyond. It reinforces Veranda Learning’s mission to deliver top-tier educational solutions across the globe, including the UAE, and underscores our commitment to providing high-quality education to students worldwide.
