Overview
Al Faleh Educational Holding
Al Faleh Educational Holding is a leading international group that provides highly reputable products and services within the education and higher education sector in Qatar. The Holding encompasses three schools, including Doha Academy and Doha International Kindergarten, all of which carry the hallmark of teaching excellence. In addition, the Holding includes a top-ranked university that is also the first UK University to operate on a dedicated campus in Qatar, AFG College with the University of Aberdeen.
Al Faleh Educational Holding was proudly founded and is led by H.E. Dr. Sheikha Aisha bint Faleh Al Thani whose vision is to contribute to the education and development of Qatar’s future leaders in line with Qatar National Vision 2030.
In April 2021, the Holding was listed on the Venture Market of the Qatar Stock Exchange which is a great achievement. Al Faleh is the first woman-led Qatari company to go public and it is also the first Qatari educational institution to list on the stock market, both major milestones reached under the stewardship of H.E. Dr. Sheikha Aisha bint Faleh Al Thani.
Al Faleh Educational Holding proudly announced the successful completion of necessary procedures with the Qatar Stock Exchange, the Qatar Central Securities Depository, and other relevant authorities. These steps marked a significant milestone as the Holding transferred its listing to the main market of the Qatar Stock Exchange on January 28, 2024.
AFG College with the University of Aberdeen is a unique partnership between Al Faleh Group for Educational and Academic Services, a subsidiary of Al Faleh Educational Holding, and the University of Aberdeen. The University of Aberdeen is the UK’s fifth oldest university, founded in 1495. The establishment of this partnership is a significant achievement for the Al Faleh Educational Holding, since the University of Aberdeen is the first British university that opened a campus in Qatar in 2017 and offers undergraduate and postgraduate degrees.
This exciting University project has been developed under the leadership of H.E. Dr Sheikha Aisha Bint Faleh Al Thani, who identified the need for increased capacity within higher education to support the Qatar National Vision 2030 and to contribute to the development of a stronger knowledge-based economy for the country.
