Inspired by the vision of His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan Bin Mohammed Alqasimi, may Allah protect him, to empower national talent, the Proud to Be a Teacher initiative was established as a leading national platform dedicated to attracting and preparing Emirati men and women to join the private education sector in the Emirate of Sharjah.

The initiative focuses on preparing Emirati teachers in accordance with the highest educational and professional standards, enabling them to contribute to shaping future generations, enhancing the quality of education, and supporting the Emirate's aspirations for knowledge creation and sustainable development.
