How to Verify a Language School’s Accreditation Yourself
- In Dubai: search the institute’s name on the official KHDA website.
- In Abu Dhabi and Al Ain: search on the official ADEK website.
- Ask for the licence number: an accredited institute gives it to you straight away.
- Don’t rely on logos: a regulator’s logo on a website isn’t proof on its own.
- Read Google reviews: recent, detailed reviews tell you more than any testimonial page.
We encourage you to check iEnglish using exactly these steps — trust should be based on what you can verify. Then book your level assessment at iEnglish.
