Am I free to come and go as I please?

Clearly, like all educational establishments, the Academy expects its students to meet minimum attendance and behaviour criteria. However Dubai is a liberal environment, and we actively encourage participation by students in all kinds of community and extra-curricular activities. We want students to enjoy Dubai in the same way as its resident national and expatriate populations do.

Can I entertain visitors from my home country during my studies in Dubai?

Although not normally encouraged during semester time, it is possible to arrange for visitor visas, where required, by application

to the Academy’s Administration Office.

What about the dress code?

Professional Dress Code

Students must be formally dressed, in compliance with the requirements of a management position in any public or private work environment. This dress code applies during working days from Sunday to Thursday, from the start until the end of all classes, every semester.

During evenings and weekends (unless banquets or other special events are organized) students may wear smart casual clothing. Dressing properly, whether in everyday or professional clothes, includes taking care of them (clean, pressed, shoes polished) and paying attention to the style and colour. The wearing of caps or hats is not permitted, nor is wearing sunglasses inside the buildings, but cultural diversity of business and casual dress is acceptable.

During practical classes in kitchen and service, professional kitchen or service outfits will be worn as per the instructions of the Chef and Restaurant Instructors. Uniforms are a visible sign of professionalism and should be worn with pride and enthusiasm.

Personal hygiene is essential in service professions and it requires continuous attention. Hair must be well groomed.
