IPM Partners With the UAE Federal Government to Provide Project Management Upskilling

Introduction

The Institute of Project Management (IPM) is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Jahiz, the UAE's premier digital upskilling platform, aimed at enhancing the readiness of government employees for the challenges of the future. This partnership builds on IPM's ongoing commitment to delivering world-class project management education and training, and it underscores our shared vision of empowering public sector professionals in the UAE with the skills they need to excel in an increasingly complex and dynamic world.

A Bright Future for Government Service

The UAE government is committed to maintaining the highest standards of public service, and Jahiz plays a central role in achieving this vision. By providing government employees with the skills necessary to deliver world-class services, Jahiz contributes to the UAE's overarching goal of becoming the best government globally.

Building on Common Goals

IPM's collaboration with Jahiz officially commenced in July 2025. We supported Jahiz's mission to upskill UAE federal government employees through the integration of our training content into their innovative platform. What initially started as a collaborative effort quickly revealed a deeper synergy between our organisations, both of which share a belief in the power of education, technology, and collaboration to shape the future of government services.

Jahiz, recognised for being the largest digital upskilling platform in the UAE, partners with national and international experts to provide government employees with interactive learning opportunities. Through this partnership, IPM will contribute its extensive project management knowledge, empowering UAE public sector professionals with essential skills in project management. This collaboration aims to help government employees deliver world-class services and transform the UAE's public sector into one of the best in the world.

IPM leverages its extensive expertise as a trusted leader in project management education, focusing on high-quality courses and certifications. This expertise is reflected in a robust learning ecosystem that includes a thriving community, tailored training programs, and mentoring. This expertise aligns perfectly with Jahiz's mission to empower government employees and build a future-ready workforce.

The Impact of This Partnership

Through this collaboration, Jahiz members will gain access to a wide array of opportunities and resources that will enhance their learning and professional growth. UAE government employees will be able to access a suite of internationally recognised project management training modules and certifications offered by IPM, seamlessly integrated into the Jahiz platform. Additionally, they will benefit from the IPM Hub, which will foster direct engagement and facilitate collaboration between government professionals and the broader IPM project management community.

Looking Ahead

This partnership is a strategic investment in the future of public sector excellence, marking a shift toward collective progress. It empowers the UAE's public sector to overcome current challenges and thrive in an ever-evolving global landscape. It also signifies the beginning of a significant chapter in advancing the project management profession in the UAE, with the potential to drive long-term, impactful change across the government sector. By joining forces with a shared commitment to innovation, high-quality learning, and future-focused skills development, IPM and Jahiz are committed to shaping the future of the UAE's public sector, empowering its professionals, and ensuring that the UAE government remains a global leader in excellence.
