Statement by Geoffrey Alphonso, CEO of Alef Education, on the announcement of Emirati Day
for Education

03/10/2024

The directive by His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE (may
Allah protect him), to declare 28 February as Emirati Day for Education reflects the deep
commitment of His Highness to the education sector, which is recognised as a driving force for the
UAE’s progress and cultural growth. The day is also significant as it commemorates the graduation
of the first batch of teachers from UAE University in 1982, also attended by the late founder Sheikh
Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan (may Allah bless his soul).
We at Alef Education are proud to be part of a vision that values education as the foundation for
societal growth and innovation. Inspired by the UAE's leadership and their commitment to fostering
a knowledge-based economy, we reaffirm our dedication to shaping the future of human capital in
the UAE. We aim to make education accessible for all students and redefine their educational
experience, empowering them to become active, contributing members of society.
As we continue to innovate and expand our offerings, Alef Education remains dedicated to
empowering future generations through educational solutions that leverage AI and technology to
offer personalized learning experiences.
