UAAPS UAE (uaaps.ae)Highlights the Growing Importance of Artificial Intelligence and Technology Education

UAAPS UAE (uaaps.ae) is positioning itself as a public-facing platform for artificial intelligence and technology education as the UAE expands formal AI instruction across its school system. The Dubai-based organisation says it offers learning opportunities for professionals and students to explore AI and related technologies, providing resources through its website and outreach from its Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoom, Al Khor Tower headquarters. Contact details listed by the organisation include info@uaaps.ae and phone +97102265911.

"Access to relevant knowledge can help people respond to a changing professional environment," UAAPS states, underlining the organisation's mission to support continual learning rather than focus solely on current technologies.

UAAPS's announcement comes as the UAE has moved to embed AI into national education policy. In May 2025, His Highness the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai announced the introduction of Artificial Intelligence as a subject across government schools from kindergarten through Grade 12. The UAE Cabinet subsequently approved a nationwide AI curriculum for public and private schools. The Ministry of Education's curriculum is described as age-appropriate and progressive, covering a broad range of technical and social topics.

The ministry's AI curriculum, referenced by UAAPS, includes the following areas:

  • Foundational AI concepts
  • Data and algorithms
  • Software use
  • Ethical awareness
  • Real-world applications
  • Innovation and project design
  • Policies and community engagement

UAAPS says it welcomes learners from diverse professional and educational backgrounds, offering a "learning-focused approach" that encourages exploration of new ideas and staying connected with developments in the digital landscape. The organisation highlights demand from both students and professionals driven by the "growing use of artificial intelligence" and the ensuing "strong need for continuous learning." UAAPS markets its website, https://uaaps.ae, as an online destination where visitors can learn about the organisation's activities, check UAAPS reviews, and access educational resources related to AI and technology.

In its release, UAAPS places particular emphasis on lifelong curiosity and incremental knowledge development: "Rather than focusing only on current technologies, the organization encourages learners to remain curious and continue developing their understanding as innovation progresses." That framing aligns with the UAE Ministry of Education's curriculum goals of helping students "gradually build their understanding of artificial intelligence according to their age and educational level."

Operationally, UAAPS underscores a mix of outreach and digital access. The organisation names its Dubai address as Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoom, AL Khor Tower, Dubai, 11524, and provides a direct email and phone line for enquiries. The press release also notes that UAAPS has published additional releases about student reviews and other education services, suggesting ongoing efforts to document learner experiences and programme impact.

Outlook

With national policy embedding AI into K–12 schooling and a broad curriculum now in place, UAAPS aims to complement formal education by offering supplementary resources and public-facing information. As demand for AI literacy grows among students and working professionals, UAAPS positions itself as a gateway for exploring AI concepts, ethical implications, and project-based innovation. The organisation's stated focus on adaptability and continuous learning indicates it intends to evolve its offerings alongside technological change and national education priorities.
