Certificates
Learning is completely free; the electronic certificate is optional and issued by the platform in its own name once you pass the program's assessments.
What the certificate shows
An electronic training completion certificate issued in the name of the Arab Platform for Professional Studies (ARPS), showing you passed the program's assessments under the route policy. It is not a university degree or professional licence, and not an endorsement by any reference organization.
Certificate fees by route
Launch price for a limited time, 50% off the base price. Payment is in UAE dirhams or Saudi riyals.
| Route | Base price | Launch price | Amount charged |
|---|---|---|---|
| Short Diplomas | $100 | 368 AED or 375 SAR | |
| Specialist Preparation Programs | $90 | 331 AED or 338 SAR | |
| Consultant Preparation Programs | $90 | 331 AED or 338 SAR | |
| Professional Certification Preparation | $90 | 331 AED or 338 SAR | |
| Professional Mini-Master | $120 | 441 AED or 450 SAR |
Dirham and riyal amounts use the fixed US dollar peg, rounded up.
Fees are shown before you enrol and locked to your enrolment, so they never change for you later. A certificate is issued only after the server confirms payment.
Transcript
Programs whose route includes a transcript (such as Short Diplomas and the Professional Mini-Master) come with a record of each subject or unit result and the final assessment, as a web page and a PDF with a verification link.
How electronic verification works
Every certificate and transcript carries a unique 28-character verification code that is impractical to guess.
Anyone can enter the code on the verification page, or open the link printed on the certificate.
The certificate status (valid or revoked), the holder's name in Arabic and English, the program and the completion date appear instantly, and nothing else.
If a certificate is reissued, its previous code remains verifiable and shows its status.
Your name on the certificate
Your name appears in Arabic and English exactly as entered in your account, so review it before issuing.
