The Education Intelligence Group (EIG) is the consultancy arm of Which Media — a team of passionate educationalists with decades of experience in the United Arab Emirates, driven by a single ambition: to help build a better education sector.

We do that by sharing what we know. Whether you are modelling a new business, refining an operating framework or implementing change on the ground, the EIG brings data, insight, practical know-how and operational skill to the table — and a network of relationships built over many years.

The stakes could not be higher. When investors are considering spending upwards of US$30 million to develop a school in the UAE, an unfettered, agenda-free analysis is vital. That analysis must be founded on fact — and through peerless contacts and proprietary research, the EIG provides a specific, up-to-the-minute, detailed map of the UAE school landscape.

Our specialists have developed their market insight from the ground up. They have managed relationships with regulators, investors, real-estate and construction companies and school leaders, and their judgement is tried and tested. As the competitive landscape intensifies, even established schools are being forced to re-evaluate their strategies; commercial marketing and admissions have become critical to every school's plan, and the insight we bring ensures our clients stay ahead.

We are curriculum experts, with deep experience of establishing a wide array of curricula and an understanding of the cost implications of each. We are UAE experts, with the local knowledge to get things done. And we are communications experts — meaning we can not only help build your business case, but help you make it persuasively. Independent, expert and relentlessly practical: that is the EIG.
