Open professional education in Arabic
The Arab Platform for Professional Studies (ARPS) is an open professional-education platform offering short diplomas and professional preparation programs in Arabic and English. Studying is completely free, the first subject of every program is open without an account, and content is built on documented sources. After passing the assessments you can issue an optional electronic certificate with a public verification code.
Routes
Choose the route that fits your goal: from a short diploma that builds a complete foundation to specialist professional preparation.
Relatively comprehensive programs, normally structured as five learning subjects with assessments and a diploma transcript.
Focused programs that build applied knowledge and role-specific capabilities without implying professional licensure.
Advanced programs emphasizing analysis, scenarios, decision-making and recommendations without implying professional licensure.
Preparation, review and mock assessment for external certifications; Arab Platform for Professional Studies (ARPS) does not administer the official exam.
An advanced five-module professional mini-master pathway integrating analytical judgment, practice and cross-module assessment, with the same nominal calendar duration as Short Diplomas. The credential records professional program completion.
Data, AI, Digital, IT & Cybersecurity
Learn to translate a defined work task into clear instructions for a generative model, select authorized information, test outputs and document their limits. The program focuses on specialist work: a task specification, a prompt, test cases, a defect record and an evidence-based handover to the decision owner.
Human, Psychology, Counseling & Family Studies
Learn to analyze family requests, compare support options and develop a reasoned recommendation that can be followed up. Family and service cases apply clear boundaries for consent, privacy, referral and clinical practice.
Projects, Operations, Quality & Supply Chain
A structured foundation in project management: deciding what is worth doing, planning it, monitoring delivery and handing it over to operations. Predictive, agile and hybrid approaches are explored through country-neutral cases, decision exercises and simple calculations without mandatory external software.
Data, AI, Digital, IT & Cybersecurity
Develop professional judgment for enterprise AI transformation, from investment selection to governance, work redesign and evidence-based scaling.
Tourism, Hospitality, Events, Real Estate & Facilities
An applied foundation in managing tourism destinations as systems: demand and stakeholders, products and visitor experience, marketing, capacity, sustainability and risk. It uses country-neutral fictional cases and does not require advanced prior experience.
Entrepreneurship, Innovation & Product
A foundational diploma on moving from product problems and users to value, strategy, priorities and roadmaps, then collaborating on delivery and launch, measuring outcomes and learning through experiments after release.
