Secretarial Training Courses in Dubai

Dubai is part of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), a confederation of seven emirates which also includes Abu Dhabi. As of 2005, just 15 percent of UAE's workforce, including foreign nationals, was female, according to a BBC News article. By tradition, many women are housewives. However, a recent economic boom and surge in foreign nationals has made working a popular choice among the younger generation of women. Secretarial and administrative work is traditionally considered a feminine role in Dubai and many training centers cater to women choosing this career path.
