A sketch, a building, an app and a film all start with an idea. The work that follows is completely different.
Intelligent Partners connects high school students with nine vetted programmes in architecture, design, fashion and creative media. Students use professional tools, take on practical tasks and see how creative work actually gets made.
KHDA and MOE approved education consultancy | Certificate of Completion included
Explore how buildings are planned and designed. Students create floor plans and 3D models using AutoCAD and SketchUp.
Work with spaces, layouts, colours and materials, including ceramic and marble. Students build a concept board and present their design ideas.
Follow a garment from sketch to finished piece through design, construction and finishing, with exposure to how the fashion industry works.
Discover the business behind art: how artwork is curated, positioned, priced and presented to buyers.
Work on practical design briefs using Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, and see how typography, images and layout carry a message.
Use Figma to map user journeys, build wireframes and create interactive prototypes for apps and websites.
Go behind animated characters and scenes, from modelling and rigging to lighting, and see how movement is created.
Develop a story, plan the shots and edit, working towards a short film of your own.
Focus on post-production: combining footage, graphics, text and movement into polished visual content.
Not sure which direction fits? Send our Programme Manager your child’s grade, interests and preferred format, and we’ll help you compare the options.
Each programme introduces the tools, processes and practical challenges of a different creative field. Depending on the programme, students may produce architectural plans, design concepts, visual briefs, digital prototypes, animation work or a short film.
The aim is career exploration, not just learning software. Students come away with a clearer sense of what studying and working in the field really involves.

Graphic Design, UI/UX Design, 2D & 3D Animation, Digital Filmmaking and Video Editing & Motion Graphics.

Intelligent Partners is a KHDA and MOE approved education consultancy based in JLT, Dubai.
We connect students with vetted host organisations and specialist providers, and we help families compare creative disciplines and choose the one that suits their child.
Programmes are delivered by these providers, and every programme includes a Certificate of Completion.
There are nine: Architecture, Interior Design, Fashion Design, Gallery Management, Graphic Design, UI/UX Design, 2D & 3D Animation, Digital Filmmaking, and Video Editing & Motion Graphics.
Four run in person in Dubai and five are virtual.
Students in Grades 9 to 13, from any school, curriculum or nationality.
They are creative career-exploration programmes. Some place students in professional environments, and others centre on practical projects and digital workflows, depending on the field.
It depends on what they draw. Architecture is about buildings and spaces, Fashion Design is about garments and how they’re made, and Graphic Design is about visual communication.
We’ll help you work out which fits best.
Curiosity matters more than experience. Our Programme Manager will confirm any software or equipment a programme needs before you enrol.
Programme fees cover the professional expertise, guidance and resources involved in delivering practical creative experiences.
Intelligent Partners also helps families compare options and choose a programme suited to their child’s interests.
Yes. Graphic design, prototyping, animation and editing are software-based fields, so virtual delivery suits them naturally.
Digital Filmmaking covers the whole journey, from story and camera work to editing a short film.
Video Editing & Motion Graphics focuses on post-production, combining footage, graphics and movement.
A creative interest means more once a student has seen the tools, decisions and work behind it.
Whether your child is drawn to architecture, fashion, design or digital media, our Programme Manager can help you find the right starting point.
